For me, everything worked fine with Version 6629. I now tried 7167 and
7174 and it also works fine, except that X totally locks up if I try to
start kde or any kde program in gnome.

I have a GeForce4 MX 440 and I tried both Versions of agp, the native
kernel via_agp and the build-in nvidia driver agp.

I do not use any special X configuration despite the settings debconf
made, but I tried both with RenderAccel and without.

martin at sangje:~ $ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/0
Model:           GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X
IRQ:             16
Video BIOS:      04.18.20.15.00
Card Type:       AGP

martin at sangje:~ $ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
Status:          Enabled
Driver:          NVIDIA
AGP Rate:        4x
Fast Writes:     Disabled
SBA:             Disabled

So, where can I at least get the ubuntu packages with version 6629 again?
