Hi guys, Since xorg has moved to extra repository, we will have broken nvidia legacy drivers: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=139388&highlight=x.org
We will see how fast new fixed legacy drivers will be released, if ever.
As alternatives, you can use nouveau, nv or vesa drivers instead. Negative effect, you lose 3D functionality, but you gain a none tainted system ;) Why you didn't write an announcement for this?
Because we didn't know this for sure. There wasn't any bug report left. And I'm totally against holding back anything because of closed stuff.
