it is fair to assume your install is dead like my installs because of the newer kernel.
kernels newer than 3.2.0-42 DESTROY any hope for a working nvidia 96 / 173 setup
the new X server also kills legacy support. A double head shot!
nouveau is simply fatally broken and unlikely to care about legacy video cards.
I've had to downgrade distros to puppy linux racy or Xubuntu 12.04
