That way Ubuntu does not have to worry about supporting the drivers
Nvidia is probably going to support 96xx line same way ax 71xx. If they weren't
going to support it they would probably write 9631, not 96xx. It wouldn't be
wise to support people with very old cards and left the ones with much newer
hardware.
I think that indeed we need three packages for nvidi

David: I fail to see how that "thread" (release announcement from
December) makes it look like that version will be supported in the
future..
Birdflesh: what distributions are you referring to?

My gf4 mx440 card has the same problem...It doesn't work with neither
97** drivers nor with the legacy one. It's no long time I use linux and
I'm not able at all to solve the problem, now i stay with the nv drivers
without 3d and composite. Hoping in something better...

Same here, todays upgrade installed an nvidia driver & kernel module that don't

So I went back to use the nvidia-legacy package. Unfortunately the driver
included with this doesn't support my card properly, I get a garbled screen.
So I fell
I was bitten by this bug and have been beating my head against the wall
over possibly another bug. I downgraded my 2.6.20-13 kernel to
2.6.20-12-lowlatency (With the kernel headers to match). apt-get remove
--purge nvidia-glx cleared the restricted modules.
Well to make a long story short I rein
I have a Geforce4 440 Go and even the 96xx drivers don't work for me,
regardless of what Nvidia says. There's a patch that allows the 8776
driver to be built against the 2.6.19 & 2.6.20 kernels, which is the
route I plan to go for as long as it lasts me. I would heartily
recommend it for 420/440/46

have to contend with possible bugs, mainly security related issues."
The following is a quote from

will_in_wi: Your comment makes no sense. The nvidia-legacy driver
supports your card just fine, minus some extended features. You'll get
proper resolution and acceleration.
What most people don't understand is that the nvidia-legacy driver we
have supports your cards. It just doesn't support use o
The only problem I see with this is the restricted drivers manager. If
indeed the 9631 driver will be included, the manager needs to detect it
properly for the correct cards. On the other hand, in the case of say,
my laptop with an mx440, the restricted drivers manager will give me an
option to i
The nv driver will not allow any resolution over 640x480 on my GeForce4

this by looking up the specs for the monitor and manually setting it in
the xorg.conf, but this is beyond the abilities of a normal user. I have

Yes, +1 for CRITICAL since this issue affects many users. It should be
solved ASAP in my opinion.
