Nvidiafb doesn't get my ooooooold black & white 7" CRT VGA monitor working. I have an GeForce 6200 one:
root@slackade:~# lspci | grep -i vga 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44 [GeForce 6200 TurboCache(TM)] (rev a1)This is the dmesg output with this old monitor ( or without any ) plugged to the VGA output:

hm. drivers/video/nvidia/ isn't exactly a hive of development activity but let's switch this over to the mailing list and see if there's any help.
