Well, as of today I run up against a stone wall:

nvidia-glx:
 Depends: nvidia-kernel-1.0.7174  but it is not installable
and dpkg -l nvidia-kernel* shows
ii  nvidia-kernel- 1.0.7174-1     NVIDIA binary kernel module common files
ii  nvidia-kernel- 1.0.7174-3     NVIDIA binary kernel module source

so what gives?

I have tried bytkeeper, alioth and some other repo, all report the same 
thing.  Nothing in alt-versions according to synaptic, checked sarge and 
sid distros.
