Also, in the future please remember that the property severity for this sort of problem is "important", not "grave"...particularly when non-Debian software (NVIDIA's proprietary driver) is in the mix. Grave bugs affect or potentially affect every user of the package. But not everyone has NVIDIA hardware, and not all of those folks use the non-free kernel and XFree86 drivers for that hardware. Before filing a release-critical bug, you should ask yourself, "should the entire Debian release be held up due to this bug?" It would be wise not to encourage people to form the impression that NVIDIA video card users care about no one but themselves. :) -- G.
