I have same video card and have had no problem with 2.6.16-gentoo-r7 and
nvidia-glx-1.0.8762 & nvidia-kernel-1.0.8762. ALso all previous versions
of above mentioned software have worked.
You will need to provide following info to help us troubleshoot your
problem:
kernel config - i.e. do you have agp gart compiled in etc. ( recommend not
and use nvidia's
output of dmesg
xorg.conf

Are your kernel source files installed and same version as installed kernel?
Hmm...that should be good for now.
