The time spent with nv-installer is about the same of "apt-get&C."


But nvidia-installer overwrites a bunch of files dpkg is meant to handle (and the --uninstall option does NOT cleanly remove it).

So if your packages are upgraded (see: recent security updates to xfree in sarge), then your nvidia setup is half-overwritten by xfree versions. a nice messy mush is made.
