Package: nvidia-driver
Version: 390.59-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

The new version of the Xserver (1.20) has support for a xorg.conf 
OutputClass section.
This makes the glx-alternative system obsolete.

The NVidia package could ship a nvidia.conf file in 
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d

Section "OutputClass"
         Identifier      "NVidia Modules"
         MatchDriver     "nvidia-drm"
         Driver          "nvidia"
         Option          "AllowEmtyInitialConfiguration"
         ModulePath      "/usr/lib/nvidia"
EndSection

This will fix bug #900248
