On the off chance that some people are still using very old cards, I
thought I drop this into the list:

NVIDIA's Oldest Legacy Driver Will Not Gain New Support
Posted by Michael Larabel on July 18, 2010
A few days back there was the release of two updated NVIDIA legacy
drivers for Linux, but only their newest legacy driver (they have
three different legacy drivers at present) gained support for X.Org
Server 1.8. This support though is needed for the older NVIDIA drivers
to operate on newer Linux distributions like Fedora 13 and openSUSE
11.3. On this Sunday evening we have now confirmation from NVIDIA that
they have no plans on providing xorg-server 1.8 support for their
oldest legacy driver.
