Well there is:
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers/
It should have a tar file, a diff and a dsc.
7174-3 is sarge's version. I know that one will build on sarge amd64.
not sure if it works with 2.6.15, although I thought it did when I tried
it on i386 at least. 8178-2 or -3 might require a dpkg/debhelper/other
stuff upgrade to compile/use at all.
Heck, even apt-get source nvidia-source ought to grab it for you, if
pointed at the official debian sources location.
