Package: nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx
Version: 96.43.13+1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

hi,

this package provides xserver-xorg-video-2
but xserver-xorg-core conflicts with xserver-xorg-video-2

the net result is as follows:

vvvvvvvvvvvvv
# apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-input-all
  xserver-xorg-input-evdev xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-input-mouse
  xserver-xorg-input-synaptics xserver-xorg-input-wacom xserver-xorg-video-nv
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx
^^^^^^

I tried to force install, just to see if it may work nonetheless,
but it does not : 
when loading the 'nvidia kernel module' the kernel log reports
vvvvvvvvvvvvv
[55703.629627] Xorg:15448 conflicting memory types e8000000-e8880000 uncached-minus<->write-combining
[55703.629639] reserve_memtype failed 0xe8000000-0xe8880000, track uncached-minus, req write-combining
[55703.630180] Xorg:15448 conflicting memory types e8000000-e8880000 uncached-minus<->write-combining
[55703.630186] reserve_memtype failed 0xe8000000-0xe8880000, track uncached-minus, req write-combining
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

When starting X, it crashes saying
vvvvvvvv
Backtrace:
0: X(xorg_backtrace+0x3b) [0x81314cb]
1: X(xf86SigHandler+0x51) [0x80c1df1]
2: [0xb7fdc400]
^^^^^^^^

So this package is unusable in sid/squeeze

a.
