CAUTION, BOGUS or incompete... advice.

There are many many AMD processor based boxes running with the nVidia
driver and nVidia GFX.  This machine for example....

   Linux box1.com 2.6.6-1.435.2.3 #1 Thu Jul 1 08:25:29 EDT 2004 \
   i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

There may be specific AMD+motherboard+nVidia combinations that
have trouble but these are rare and ill defined.

See the nVidia release notes and forums for what is known
if you suspect a problem.
