The last version of the binary driver that supports those cards is more than 5 years old. Unlike the Nvidia counterpart it has never been updated for newer kernels or X servers. I think it is safe to remove these cards from the binary driver handler. I guess its also safe to keep them in there though in case we have one or two users left who use ancient distros.

This is also used for MacOS, although it could be argued its OpenGL

random things either.
