Sadly, new driver apparently stopped supporting some cards like my good
old GeForce4 MX 440.  It it, however, supported by 96xx and 7184 legacy
versions (with 7184 supporting even much older models of GPUs).  I'm now
not sure if I should still consider 7184 being our "official" legacy
version (as nVidia webpage states) or move to 9631 (to help us care for
GF2/3/4 for time being but forget about Riva's and Vanta's).

Let's see what people would say about this.
