16 I've got an old nVida card:

18 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV6 [Vanta/Vanta
19 LT] (rev 15)

21 and am using the 7174. GLX, DRI it all works well. I've been putting
22 off upgrading to modular X on this box until I knew that any bugs which
23 might affect the nVidia kernel were resolved. So has anyone using this
24 unified driver upgraded to modular Xorg and still had GLX, DRI all work
25 using the nVidia 7174?
