Bug Description
Please include nvnet in the Ubuntu repositories. Being able to grab the nvidia graphics driver from the repositories is very nice, and I'd like to be able to do the same with the network driver. Recompiling it every time the kernel gets upgraded is a major annoyance.

With more recent packages (Edgy and up-to-date Dapper), the forcedeth driver actually works, so this isn't as necessary as it used to be. I'd still prefer to use the nvnet driver, but it's no longer worth the extra hassle to keep it up to date.
