You may be able to set it in xorg.conf

Seems to be:

echo "options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/fastwrites.conf > /dev/null

Reboot to test. Source:

I assume you have seen this page as it took me seconds to find. Have you tried this?

Hello,
 thanks for the link, however, that doesnt work anymore with ubuntu. This is why I asked. "tseliot" aka alberto milone, was always around when I needed him, ") , now , something has changed within ubuntu that prevents this from working.
