The Nvidia Legacy graphics drivers are not even in the Karmic
repositories.  I had to go back to the jaunty repository to get the
drivers for all Nvidia legacy cards.  For example TNT and Vanta cards
the use the nvida 71.xxx driver and kernel patch.  Because some of us
use old hardware it is disappointing to see Ubuntu abandon the legacy
proprietary drivers in Karmic and future releases.  Please add nvidia
legacy driver support back into the distribution for the future.  I
install Ubuntu on many computers for a non-profit organization.  We use
many old donated computers.  We need Ubuntu to continue to offer these
legacy drivers andd support for there installation of of the box.   As I
stated the 71.xxx drivers have been abandoned in the repositories for
Karmic.
