That's funny. It still works just fine for me:

jack@nostromo:~$ COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l nvidia-kernel-2.6.25*
[cut]

ii  nvidia-kernel-2.6.25-1-amd64                 169.12-1
+2.6.25-1                            NVIDIA binary kernel module for 
Linux 2.6.25-1-amd64

ii  nvidia-kernel-2.6.25-2-amd64                 169.12-1
+2.6.25-2                            NVIDIA binary kernel module for 
Linux 2.6.25-2-amd64

I mean, it's not a big deal since you're working on the new driver 
version, but it would surely be interesting understanding why it works 
for me and not for others.
