"The Linux 304.* legacy driver series is the last to support the NV4x |
9 |
and G7x GPUs and motherboard chipsets based on them. Support for new |
10 |
Linux kernels and X servers, as well as fixes for critical bugs, will |
11 |
be included in 304.* legacy releases through the end of 2017." [1] |

That should be fine, then: 304 no longer receives security support so it |
14 |
can go away along with xorg-server-1.19. |
