ive got a tnt2 ultra card but in the xf86config-4 it states tnt2 card, can this be changed so it will be an ultra, so the entry would be tnt 2 ultra or something?

Are you expecting any kind of performance increase by adding the "Ultra" to the descriptor? I would imagine such an increase is ponly possible by tweaking the driver settings or using a new driver.

If you just want to change the text, edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 yourself and add the word "ultra".

Just choose 'tnt2'. I'm sure that when you install the NVidia drivers, they will take full advantage of the TNT2 ULTRA chipset...

From my understanding, the nvidia driver should take care of everything for you. You could call it a GF3 if it makes you happy, but the driver is universal across nVidia cards.
