Comment 22 for bug 616394

This might be related: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=153963 .

So it seems that making their legacy drivers work with X server 1.9 is low priority issue for NVidia. Too bad that some (including me) just can't upgrade to nvidia-current.

I don't know the details to be sure, but for now it seems there is nothing we (as Ubuntu community) can do but wait. It would be great if nouveau worked with my gfx card, though :)
