If cards are supported by either 173 or 177, nvidia-common will suggest the right package to install in 2 cases:
* if you're doing the dist-upgrade with Update Manager, then Update Manager will install the right driver automatically
* if you're doing the dist-upgrade from the command line, a debconf interface will show up and suggest the user to do, say, "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177", to install the new driver (and of course it will explain the problem).

As far as I know this is all implemented. Maybe Michael could confirm what I said.
