The last Alioth sprint resulted in all of the URLs for the Subversion web
interface changing.  I've been kind of hoping that they'll find a way to
restore the old URLs, since lots of packages are affected and it would be
a lot of work to change all of them across Debian, but if the old URLs
don't come back relatively soon, we should probably start changing the
Vcs-Browser settings in the packages.

The correct URL is:

    http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/pkg-nvidia/packages/nvidia-support/

However, note that that's not the right thing to look at for anything
related to support for a specific card.  That package just does some setup
and checks for all the NVIDIA driver packages.  You probably want to be
looking at the nvidia-graphics-drivers package.
