It means that your nvidia card has PCI vendor
id 0x10DE and device id 0x0111, the best
way to identify a vga card.  No grubbing
around in the bios.

I think I've mentioned it here before, but
I changed our as-yet-unreleased aux/vga to identify
cards by vendor/device id pairs exactly as above.
For example, our current nvidia vgadb entry looks like:

ctlr
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0020		# Riva TNT
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0028		# Riva TNT2
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0029		# Riva TNT2 Ultra
	vid=0x10DE did=0x002C		# Riva TNT2 Vanta
	vid=0x10DE did=0x002D		# Riva TNT2 M64
	vid=0x10DE did=0x00A0		# Riva TNT2 Integrated
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0100		# GeForce 256
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0101		# GeForce DDR
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0103		# Quadro
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0110		# GeForce2 MMX
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0111		# GeForce2 MMX DDR
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0112		# GeForce2 Go
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0113		# Quadro 2 MXR
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0150		# GeForce2 GTS
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0151		# GeForce2 GTS (rev 1)
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0152		# GeForce2 Ultra
	vid=0x10DE did=0x0153		# Quadro 2 Pro
	link=vga
	ctlr=nvidia linear=1
	hwgc=nvidiahwgc

which would have detected your card just fine.
I started a rewrite of aux/vga a year ago to go even
further toward making vgadb a last resort, but it
got stalled.  Maybe I'll return to it some day.
