#packages. None of them probably builds with the current stock kernels,
#and mostlikely need really old version of X.org

=====================================================================

#The following nvdia binary blob releated packages should be removed.
#Reasons include orphan, out-of-date, old (beta/testing) versions, which
#do not work with our current kernels, X.org or need some older gcc
#release.

[10]cuda-beta
[11]cuda-sdk-beta
[12]cuda-toolkit-beta

[13]cuda-old
[14]cuda-sdk-old
[15]cuda-toolkit-old
##If needed the -old packages should be reuploaded as cuda2-X like done
##with most other applications and as with the verison 3 branch of
#cuda(cuda3-X)

[16]cuda-sdk-gcc34
#Do we really need a version for gcc34?

#No maintainer and depend on the old kernel26 naming scheme,
#nvidia-96xx-all can build a package for any installed kernel. Merging
#to nvidia-96xx-all, instead of removal, might be the way to go.

#Some really old OSS sound driver for nForce 1/2 motherboards, support
#for them exist in kernel tree, accoeding to comments.

#Out-of-date, non maintained, we can easily manage without it too. Easy

#Old kernel triver, last commit 4 years ago, I'd be suprised if it would
#build with modern kernel, without 5000 lines of patches ^_^
