Hello, I have two problems:

1) Identify my card
2) Error message at dumping

1) It seems to me that I have a special version of the GeForce4 420 Go
32M because my card is a GeForce4 440 Go 64M but both have the same PCI
device id. Is this important for the development of the renouveau driver
or is this already noted?

Outputs:

lspci
[...]
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 440
Go 64M] (rev a3)

lspci -n
[...]
01:00.0 0300: 10de:0179 (rev a3)


System:

Operating System: Gentoo

uname -a
Linux workstation 2.6.20-gentoo-r8 #1 PREEMPT Fri May 11 19:52:29 CEST
2007 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.53GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

Nvidia Driver: 1.0.8776-r1

2) I want to report following error message. I want to dump my card with
KoalaBR's script. The complete output (after answering yes):

Is there already a solution?
