I have a NVidia GeForce2 Mx and XFree from xsrc (4.2.0). I'm using
the nv driver.

Looking at /var/log/XFree86.0.log, i can read:

/-----------------
| (II) NV: driver for NVIDIA chipsets: RIVA 128, RIVA TNT,

\-----------------

So it seems some TNT2 cards are supported by this driver. But, as
with all NVidia models, we don't have HW acceleration (it's not a
problem for me as i don't shake too often my Emacs window...)

Hope this helps,
