It was in testing and was then kicked [1], now it is waiting to enter
testing again [2].
It does affec etch release very well, because I don't think anyone
wants to see Debian Stable without support for NVIDIA grafic-chips.

If you want to have 9629, take the sources of the 9625 package from
experimental and hack in the new nvidia.run, it isn't very hard (i've
did so once i had a nvidia card).
