Package: nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx
Version: 1.0.9639-1
Followup-For: Bug #425693

i don't think that this was the correct resolution to this bug report.
because the 71xx packages now do not conflict with the 96xx packages, i 
really hosed my apt database when i switched between versions.  the 96xx
package wouldn't fully install because it wouldn't overwrite the 71xx
nvidia.ko file.  so both versions were installed, and i couldn't remove
either with apt. i had to go in and manually remove both versions with 
dpkg, then install the version i wanted.

if the user wants to build both packages on the same machine, then he
should install one package, do what he needs to do, then remove it, then
install the other package.

i think this should be marked as a "won't fix" bug (well the fix is
worse than the original symptom).
