1.  Load the latest driver for AGP video card from the Workstation Supplement CD.
a. Login in a terminal as root user, stop the X-server running by bring the system from init 5 to init 3 run level.
b .Insert the Workstation Supplement CD and mount the CDROM.
c. Run the install.sh script which will install the driver for your Nvidia APG card.

Login: root
password: *******
#init 3
#mount /mnt/cdrom
#cd /mnt/cdrom/drivers/linux
#./install.sh
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Take a copy of the current XF86config file before editing it.
# cp /etc/X11/XF86config /etc/X11/XF86config.orig
3.Edit the XF86config file.
Note:- Mere copy of the content below to this file will well work for Sun Java Workstations W1100z and W2100 but for other 
X86/X64 systems, you need to find the AGP/video card PCI id from '/proc/pci' directory or use 'lspci' command and make 
the appropriate changes in this Section "Device" of below file.

# RgbPath is the location of the RGB database.  Note, this is the name of the
file minus the extension (like ".txt" or ".db").  There is normally
no need to change the default.
Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together).
By default, Red Hat    6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
the X server to render fonts.

# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
#	Option	"XkbDisable"
# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults).  For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
#	Option	"XkbModel"	"pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
#	Option	"XkbModel"	"microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
#	Option	"XkbLayout"	"de"
# or:
#	Option	"XkbLayout"	"de"
#	Option	"XkbVariant"	"nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
#	Option	"XkbOptions"	"ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
#	Option	"XkbOptions"	"ctrl:nocaps"
