--- Description ---
emulators/linux-c6 option to use NVIDIAL_GL doesn't allow for use of legacy
Nvidia drivers.

If I am using the legacy Nvidia port, x11/nvidia-driver-340, setting the "Use
GL driver from nvidia-driver" option in the emulators/linux-c6 port causes it
to pull in the newest Nvidia driver, x11/nvidia-driver, instead of using my
installed legacy driver, x11/nvidia-driver-340.

>From the emulators/linux-c6 Makefile:

OPTIONS_DEFINE= NVIDIA_GL
NVIDIA_GL_DESC= Use GL driver from nvidia-driver

NVIDIA_GL_RUN_DEPENDS= 
${LINUXBASE}/usr/lib/libGL.so.1:${PORTSDIR}/x11/nvidia-driver \
			linux-c6-libGLU>0:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/linux-c6-libGLU
NVIDIA_GL_RUN_DEPENDS_OFF=     
linux-c6-dri>0:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/linux-c6-dri


Is it possible to allow this to use legacy Nvidia drivers?
