NOTES:
|
|
|
|
The following GPUs are no longer supported in the regular NVIDIA
|
|
Unified UNIX Graphics Driver. Instead, these GPUs will continue to be
|
|
supported through special "Legacy GPU" drivers that will be updated
|
|
periodically to add support for new versions of Linux system
|
|
components (e.g., new Linux kernels, new versions of the X server,
|
|
etc).
|
|
|
|
There are presently two Legacy GPU driver series. The 1.0-71xx series
|
|
supports TNT, TNT2, GeForce 256, and GeForce2 GPUs. The 1.0-96xx
|
|
series supports GeForce2 MX, GeForce3, GeForce4, and Quadro4 GPUs.
|
|
For a complete list of the GPUs supported in each of the Legacy GPU
|
|
driver series, see the lists below.
|
|
