Try adding sarge non-free and then try. It seems to have it at the

Other option is to use the new packages from experimental and rebuild
them on amd64. That should work too. Someone mentioned on the list
recently where to get the packages from experimental and how to build
them on amd64 as far as I remember.
Anything is better than the nvidia installer.

That I don't know yet. I have mainly stayed with sarge.
