Package: nvidia-kernel-legacy-96xx-2.6.18-4-686
Version: 1.0.9639+1
Severity: important
the 96xx and 71xx kernel module packages should conflict. both attempt
to write to the same nvidia.ko file, which leads to various problems
including a broken apt database.

this is no longer an issue for lenny since 71xx binary packages are
not being provided. and even so, "m-a a-i nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx"
doesn't build correctly. hence, it will require perseverence from the
user to get 71xx installed, and hence a very low probability of this
conflict with the 96xx driver.
