Is this issue still present with the current driver (195.36.24-1 entered 
testing today) and kernel versions (2.6.32-*) in testing/unstable?
The module builds for all kernel flavors of 2.6.32 in Debian (normal, openvz, 
vserver, xen) without needing a patch at all (all old patches that did not 
apply for a long time have been removed from the package source). But so far 
we don't have any reports about someone actually running the nvidia module on 
any of the "virtualized" kernels successfully.
