The XFree86 server supports GeForce chips using the free software 'nv'

nor framebuffer.  For that you need the closed source proprietary
nVidia driver direct from nVidia.  There are packages available to
help with that.

Booting Knoppix and having it all work is a good way to verify that
your hardware is fully functional.
