I have Slackware 9.0 and a GeForce FX 5200 video card. I installed the newest driver, i modified /etc/X11/XF86Config i found on a site with glx and Driver "nvidia". So Load "glx" and Driver "nvidia" are there. I also found a post about APIC and ACPI. I disabled it. When i type startx there the screen flickers and then shows somekind of white symbols and the computer freezes. Any ideeas why? Did it happen to you?

Here is my conf:

AMD Athlon XP 2000+
Epox n-force2
512 DDRAM
Inno3D GeForce FX 5200
