[ale] Viper770

[Phil 49]

I just bought a Viper v770 32Mb AGP card this weekend. It works like a 
dream!! Nvidia's website has an updated SVGA server for X, along with a MESA 
patch for 3D when in 16bpp mode. The drivers are a breeze to install. All 
you do is download the one binary, run the script(not while in X though), 
run your XF86Setup, and restart X. The FAQ for the Linux drivers has full 
instructions. If I did it anyone can....:)
