Consider yourself lucky. There are no nvidia-kernel-2.6* packages so
I've grown resigned to losing X until I build a new kernel whenever
nvidia-glx is upgraded. I'm sure there's a way of just rebuilding the
nvidia-kernel-* packages but it happens infrequently enough that I'm
upgrading the kernel version anyway half of the time.
