7200 GS as replacement for the integrated ATI Radeon X1250-based. What
ever this "based" should mean. I didn't get 3D acceleration working for
the ATI. Sometimes I do need 3D acceleration, but I don't need the
NVIDIA, if the ATI should work. I can't pay for another graphics, I'm
jobless and from the money I had from my last job, I bought a RME card
and other expensive gear some days ago. Nobody knows when I'll have a
job again, hence there's no run on artists, philosophers and even audio
and video engineers in Germany at the moment ;). So yes, I need a
proprietary NVIDIA or ATI driver that will work with one of those two
graphics.
Thank you, at least I know that I might need to downgrade X.

What nvidia card do you have?
Maybe extra/nvidia 270.41.19-1 (the updated one), nouveau or even
nouveau-git would be better for your video card.
If you really need a legacy nvidia driver, then you might have
problems with recent xorg versions. You can manually choose to use an
older version of xorg if you really need. If you want to build a lot of stuff yourself,
Arch Linux and Gentoo
crosses my mind.
Arch Linux might be interesting, I need to read more or just will test
it. Gentoo, hm? OOTB (is there an 'OOTB'?) without ALSA?
