Complying to check for proper driver.

jimmy@jimmy-1:~$ nvidia-detect
Detected NVIDIA GPUs:
00:0d.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation C61 
[GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a] [10de:03d6] (rev a2)

Checking card:  NVIDIA Corporation C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a]
(rev a2)
Your card is only supported up to the 304 legacy drivers series.
It is recommended to install the nvidia-legacy-304xx-driver package.
