We don't have nouveau in the repo at all, as it wasn't stable at the time of the builds.

Since TinyCore with the "nv" driver stop working for my fx5200 card after few time (depend of the activity with the PC: from 15min to 1/2h), I would like to make a "nouveautesting" extension.
Has somebody any advice how to create that extension?
Perhaps it is the same procedure as for creating an nvidia extension indicated in the beginning of that thread?

Gawron:
Hi floppy xorg-7.6 works without troubles with GeForce FX 5200. The problem is probably in your hardware. On my computer I only added nv diver to my system with command
tce-load -wi xf86-video-nv
My xorg.conf has driver nv in section device. So far had no problems with this driver. Only changed resolution for my screen in section monitor.
Here is my xorg.conf
