Bug #16837 is resolved, now that Rawhide supports the GeForce2 chip (PCI ID
0x150 according to xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/xf86PciInfo.h). 

However, Rawhide is missing support for a bunch of GeForce2 variants. The
GeForce2 MX is the "value" product from Nvidia. Additionally, Rawhide does
not support the Ultra, Quadro 2 Pro, and other variants that have recently
been checked into XFree86 CVS. I would expect that the MX is going to show
up in a lot of OEM systems this fall, and a lot of people will try to
install RedHat on it. 

I think it would be a real good idea to support the MX in the next Red Hat
release (7.0 ?), and the other variants as well, if there isn't much risk.
I'm pretty sure that the change only amounts to adding a few constants for
the PCI IDs and adding the constants to a table of recognized cards.

The August CVS changelog for XFree86
(http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/cvs-commit/2000-August.txt.gz) lists a
bunch of nvidia changes. There is at least one change in there to add
acceleration support (which you may or may not want to skip). I've attached
an excerpt from the change log showing the change descriptions that I hope
you will look at.
