Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope - NVidia TNT2 Model 64 32MB

Hi Guys,

I'm using Linux in a old PC and today I clean all old systems ( yeah I didn't clean the system since 5 years).

After install 9.04 I can't put 1024x768 resolution.

After google it I found a thread talking about it [1]

For me it is useful and then I publish it here. Even I want support to 3D acceleration I read that it's not possible (waiting for new hacks from nvidia team, but I'm guessing that is not incoming.)
