not exactly the same chipset, but I am just building a new system based on
GeForce7100/NForce630i , a Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H.
I wasn't able to get the nvidia drivers running with 2.6.18, but have good
success now with beta from nvidia (171.06) on 2.6.24, allthough I'm still on
plan old VGA, need to setup HDMI later.
