I believe only the migration helpers patch is needed for the legacy 96** series.

At least the 9631 version of the Nvidia video
driver did not compile
after the patch was applied and the kernel successfully build and
booted. Same would definitely hold for older Nvidia versions and
possibly newer ones as well.
Problem: A bunch of obseleted #define SA_..... entries
in the linux source/include/linux/interrupt.h
They say do not use in newer code but Nvidia does need them.
Solution: Copy these from an older or unpatched version of this file
and then paste into the new one. One need not rebuild the kernel
since these are no longer used there. After do this, Nvidia will
build and run fine (so far).
Don't "fix" the kernel, but fix the drivers ;)
Patches for 9746 driver attached.
