I had the same problem with NVIDIA AGP, but when I tried with AGPGART, I got 4xAGP working on my VIA chipset mobo. Btw, you don't need to hack the os-registry.c, you can give NVreg_EnableVia4x=1 as module parameter when you load NVdriver.

Thanks for your reply.
I have already load module with AGPGART ...don't work.

At this time my only system is to use 2960.

Try this:
Download the Kernel tar.gz file.
Edit os-registry.c
Find this line, and make sure it is "1".
static int NVreg_EnableVia4x = 1;
Hope it helps.

You have 4x enabled?
cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status

Can you try NVreg_enableVia4X? (note the lowercase 'e')

Hmm, modinfo NVdriver says:

parm: NVreg_EnableVia4x int

E is not lowercase there.
