i have succeed !!!
so i want to appologies for my bad behavior here: sorry to all i have made sadness !
specially to -Lev who is a helpful man ! thanx to you.
if fact, my kernel didn’t supported the AGP. so, i’ve rebuild a new kernel 2.5.1 and now all is OK !
speed increase between twice or 3, and i don’t optimize a lot !
(no nvidia alloc and extension drawing).
before when doing cat /proc/nv/card0 it found a geforce2 mx PCI and now it’s a geforce 2 mx AGP.
AGP is 4x, but SBA is disable: how to enable it ?
and FW is disabled and not supported. how to do it ?
thanx a lot.
i’ll give soon all the sources for such a doing !!

You have to install the src rpm, edit the os-registry.c file (desc below), and install your modified NVIDIA kernel module.
When you edit os-registry.c, you have to change the values of NVreg_EnableAGPSBA and NVreg_EnableAGPFW. I have not been able to get a stable system with side-band addressing.
and what is Side Band Adress exactly, and FW (frame width ?) ? someone in an old post, told me that he had to enable SBA and FW to have a good acceleration. And what happend you ?
again me.
this may not be the main topic for this, but someone may have encountered the same problem. i hope.
For having AGP enable, i had to rebuild a new kernel (which is 2.5.1). And now my linux can’t shutdown normally, it can’t unmount all my partitions ! so, it have to check them each new start ! that’s a shame !
