Public bug reported:

Per bug 616394,  xorg-1.9 is incompatible with the nvidia-96 and
nvidia-173 driver packages that are currently in Maverick.  These are
the proprietary drivers in Ubuntu for Nvidia hardware prior to the
GeForce 6000 series.

Perhaps a "Breaks: nvidia-96, nvidia-173" or some such line could be
added to the xserver-common control file to keep the X.org 1.7
installation from Lucid intact during an upgrade to Maverick.

** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu)
