Bug#609615: linux-2.6: please do not build in nvidiafb on powerpc systems

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>]

Package: linux-2.6
Severity: normal

in http://bugs.debian.org/608846 , i encountered difficulties with an
NVIDIA chipset on powerpc.  

These difficulties appear to be exacerbated by the fact that debian's
powerpc kernel has set

CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA=y

Please set this option to 'm' for powerpc (this course of action was
suggested by jcristau on #debian-x, who helped me find a workaround to
the earlier problem).

Thanks for maintaining the Linux kernel in debian,

       --dkg
