Package: nvidia-graphics-drivers
Severity: normal
I know that upstream is already in 8774, but since 8178, the drivers has
bugs that makes it unusable (the EDID reading don't work, etc).
Currently I have to manually copy files around to make the old package
work with xorg, but now it just became even harder.
The maintainer, who actually know what he's doing, I guess it would be
trivial to create an alternative package, and it would save a lot of
pain for many of us!

Hi,
there are already drivers for legacy version 1.0-7184. Unless you see a
good reason to keep this report open, please close it.
Hi,
I was under the impression that the -legacy drivers has support for the
GPUs removed from the "real" driver. Am I mistaken here? The legacy
supports all GPUs?

You're not mistaken. The legacy drivers don't support all GPUs. The
"current" drivers at one point dropped support for a number of older
GPUs. The previous release of the current drivers then became the legacy
release. Since then, the current drivers added support for newer cards
not supported by the legacy drivers. So, most cards are supported by
each driver branch, and each branch supports some cards not supported by
the other.
Ok, in this case I guess you can close my bug, sorry for the mixup!

OK, doing so per this message since you don't do it yourself.
