So we need to create a separate branch of driver as 304xx and to replace the main serie with that for compatibility. Then we will introduce latest stable driver with a new nvidia-latest serie. That way geforce6/7 users will not update to a driver that doesn't support their hardware.

We will also rework the driver a little, so that's the remaining part of the problem, then there will be a package review.
