Ok, I checked nvidia-kernel-source, the following things needs to be
changed:

  * the tarball in /usr/src needs to be nvidia-kernel.tar.bz2, not
    nvidia-kernel-source.tar.gz.

  * provide a top-leval makefile in modules/nvidia-kernel, so that the
    module is buildable with the normal $(MAKE) -M call. you can
    copy&paste one from aufs for example.

That's all. I've already commited nvidia-kernel meta-files into
linux-modules-nonfree-2.6, so, as soon as ready, we can go for the
2.6.22-3 upload.

Do you also intend to join in for the two legacy sources? If yes, there
are the same things needed to be adjusted before it will work.

Regards,
Daniel
