The problem is that this driver drop support for cards from the geforce6/7
series.
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.
