Hmmm.

Is this using the nVidia proprietary driver or the generic nv driver.

If the latter, I haven't a clue.

If it's the proprietary driver, I suggest you query about this on an
nVidia forum/list. Some of the older nVidia cards are only properly
supported by legacy nVidia drivers.

Google has a fair amount of data, including this reference
http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-311670.html.

Remember. google is your friend.
