As a total newbie - that is EXACTLY what I did with an ancient Nvidia 4mg card 
a month or so ago. I then bought a newer GEForce 400 w/ 64Mg and followed the 
same procedures. Worked fine both times.

I don't consider myself a hardware guy or a Linux guy, maybe a 
router/switch/firewall/network design guy. But anyway - it worked like a 
champ. The only thing I had to do after running the shell script was to edit 
XF86Config-4.
