Hello all. I have an old computer and bought an AGP Nvidia 5200 series card. I am having problems with installing the drivers and getting the TVout to work. I have done the following. I tried to install with manufacture CD drivers but I get the message that there are no drivers for the hardware:

1. I have installed EnvyG, through it I installed package 96 (for old cards).
2. I have installed Nvidia TVout package, but when it is double clicked no program runs.
3. When I go to Nvida Settings, it tells me that "you do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server."





Anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks.:D

Same problem here, the app TVout doesn't run and xorgedits do not fix problems
