Tried it; no go.

I've just upgraded to the latest non-beta BIOS. The MB is an ASUS
A7V8X-X, and the latest BIOS is 1013, dated 9 September 2004.

There was no xorg.conf. I had manually removed it. I just re-installed
and made sure to rebuild xorg.conf. So I got an XF86Config instead of
an xorg.conf. NBD.

Anyway, I added that line and NoLogo "0" to the device section. I get:

(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/XF86Config"
Parse error on line 57 of section Device in file /etc/X11/XF86Config
	"NvAGP" is not a valid keyword in this section.
(EE) Problem parsing the config file
(EE) Error parsing the config file

According to the README file, it is valid in both the device and
screen sections, which I tried.
