I just tested the 2.6.11 kernel fb on a PNY Geforce FX 5200, and a Visiontek 
Geforce TI 4600.  The results were pretty good, though there were some 
definite glitches here and there.  The FX had problems with several modes, 
frequencies being out of wack, but at least the card is now supported.  The 
TI 4600 did really well, however, occasionally a mode wouldn't work 
correctly either.  Again, the same problem, frequency timing.  I couldn't 
get either card to work without DDC, which may be the source of the problem. 
I don't currently have a TNT card or I'd test it too.  I suspect they might 
work now, though who know's how reliably. 

I only tested PC monitor frequencies.  Also, nvidia's X driver requires a 
patch to compile on 2.6.11 kernels right now :( 

I'm running on LFS 6.0 / BLFS 6.0.
