Just to let you know: I have removed the nvidia-173xx driver packages from [extra]. They wont work with current xorg-server anyway. Once nvidia releases a new driver these can be readded easily. Keeping a package that cannot work is kind of pointless.

I also had to remove the nvidia-96xx packages we still had. This means if you want to use the proprietary driver you'll need at least a Geforce 6. There is nothing we can do about this.
Couldn't we at least add a conflicts line with the new xserver for a while, so that upgrades are blocked for these users until they fix their system? What is the expected upgrade path? Rémy.
