backports of nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-{173,96}xx [non-free]

[Andreas Beckmann]

Dear backports team,

I'm considering having backports of nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-173xx
and nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-96xx uploaded to squeeze-backports.

These packages are not available in testing because they do not support
the X version there, but they work fine with X from stable.
Therefore I'm asking for an exception to backport the versions from
unstable.

Changes compared to the version currently in stable:

* support for kernel 3.2
* a few upstream fixes
* new diversion/alternatives handling (via glx-alternatives, already
backported and used by the nvidia-graphics-drivers backport)

There have been questions about these backports on IRC, usually
assisting the users to do their own backport.


Andreas
