Ping? Note that while #679557 may seem to only affect unstable, we
really need this version of xserver-xorg-video-nouveau to go into wheezy
unless somebody comes up with a fix for #666468 -- and I don't expect
that to happen anytime soon.
Hence, upgrading the severity of this bug report to the same as #679557.
Cheers,
Sven
