It compiles with the kernel that's in Debian unstable and is releasing
with squeeze.  We won't be able to upload 256.* versions to Debian until
after the squeeze release, since the priority right now is to get packages
into squeeze that are reasonable.  We may, if people have time, get
packages for experimental, but it's a lower priority for Debian at the
moment.

I don't believe there's any newer kernel packaged for Debian at all right
now, since people are focusing on the release.  If you're using a
custom-built kernel from newer sources, you'll need to use a custom
download of the NVIDIA packages as well for the time being.
