+ nVidia continues to drop support for old ("legacy") GPUs. To deal with
+ this fact, the port now allows to specify correct NVVERSION in order to
+ build driver that supports your graphics card. Currently, supported
+ "legacy" values are 7184 and 9631. Consult nVidia's README (Appendix A)
+ to find out whether you need to use legacy driver version, and exactly
+ which one. Alternatively, you can install one of the corresponding
+ `x11/nvidia-driver-XXXX' slave ports, where XXXX == needed NVVERSION.
