Title: ABI change in xorg 1.9 breaks legacy nvidia-96 drivers in Maverick Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in X.Org X server: Invalid Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-96” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “jockey” source package in Maverick: Fix Released Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-96” source package in Maverick: Fix Released Bug description: Per bug 616394, xorg-1.9 is incompatible with the nvidia-96 and nvidia-173 driver packages that are currently in Maverick. These are the proprietary drivers in Ubuntu for Nvidia hardware prior to the GeForce 6000 series. Perhaps a "Breaks: nvidia-96, nvidia-173" or some such line could be added to the xserver-common control file to keep the X.org 1.7 installation from Lucid intact during an upgrade to Maverick.
