Just as message says, newer driver stopped supporting your graphics
card (mine as well, BTW).  For now you should downgrade to version 9631,
but I plan to implement some user input for desired version within the
port.  Once I come up with elegant ehough solution, I'll commit it.

I personally will not go back that far to a 76xx version of
this driver nor can I update the video card in my laptop (440 go).
Until the PR mentioned above branches, I'll just run the nv driver
with xorg and leave the binary blob alone; I don't necessarily need
3d accel anyway.

This is only half correct. A number of GPUs (gf4mx included) were
orphaned in the 97xx driver release. The 96xx series still supports
these chips, so it's a bit absurd to expect users to go back to the 76xx
driver.

This one bit me as well on a gf4 ti card as well. I guess this is nvidia
nudging everyone to upgrade their hardware. Could soemone remind me
again why binary blobs are good?

Just do what the large comment in the Makefile says to do:
# Starting with version 7667, NVidia has dropped support for numerous
# "legacy" GPUs.  One can, however, build the port with 
-DWITH_LEGACY_GPU_SUPPOR
T
# to go with version 7184 of the driver.
et cetera.

Just what it says. That driver doesn't support your card.  Go to the link
shown in the error, down load the latest 1.0-96xx Legacy drivers and follow
the directions they give you to install it.
