It is now working for me, with the following packages installed:
[UPGRADE] nvidia-glx 100.14.11-1 -> 100.14.19-1
[UPGRADE] xserver-xorg 1:7.2-5 -> 1:7.3+1
[UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12 -> 2:1.4-1

I installed the drivers on 2.6.22-2 from the following package:
[UPGRADE] nvidia-kernel-source 100.14.11-1 -> 100.14.19-1

Cheers!
