<strong>Known limitations:</strong>
<ul>
<li>If the driver does not load make sure you enabled 'assign IRQ to VGA card' in your system BIOS;
<li>Embedded GeForce RAM detection is non-functional: please set amount manually for now via the nv.settings file (driver probably defaults to 1Mb if you don't). If you have overlay trouble, set a slightly smaller amount of RAM than you actually specified in the system BIOS (1Mb less or so);
<li>If the driver still seems to create 'random' trouble make sure you have a fully functional VGA BIOS, or system BIOS for embedded cards (check for updates on the manufacturor's site). Make sure you mail me if you still have trouble but also if this version fixed that!
<li>If on a laptop the internal panel doesn't work when you connect an external monitor, make sure you set 'output device selection' to 'internal' (instead of 'auto') in the system BIOS if it has such an option. If you have this symptom on a normal card, or on a laptop without that BIOS option then you are probably out of luck for dualhead support.
</ul>

<li>Added AGP mode capability on AGP cards along with the option to block it in nv.settings. No GART and AGP aperture support; but if your card and system AGP host bridge support the 'fastwrite' (FW) feature, you'll notice a nice speedup of unaccelerated graphics.

<li>Added option in nv.settings to 'unhide' fastwrite support in AGP cards. Some older cards support FW even though normally they don't show it so it won't get activated (confirmed GeForce2 MX400, NV11).<br>
<strong>NOTE please:</strong><br>
This is a tweak that you <strong>can</strong> enable, but you do so at your own risk (of course)!
<li>Fixed RAM amount detection for GeForce2 and GeForce4 MX Integrated GPU boards.
