[ale] Decent low-cost AGP graphics card for a server

[James Sumners]

Have you tried the open source "nv" driver that ships with X? If this
is a file server you really don't need the 3D support that the closed
source driver gives you. The nv driver is 2D only and should work with
any nVidia card you throw at it, especially older ones.
