  Matt,  I'm using the latest drivers for my GeForce4 MX 440 from
atrpms.net... 9639 to be exact.  What kind of setup are you running?
Perhaps you can attach your xorg.conf and glxinfo?  I had it working before,
but after changing the xorg.conf and updating the drivers... no dice.  The
problem was that I couldn't get the 1366x768 resolution with the old
drivers, and now I can't get the opengl painter with the new drivers...
