Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nv

The latest version of the nv driver was released with support for (I think) the last of the 8x00 series mobile chipsets. From gitweb:
+ { 0x10DE040B, "Quadro NVS 320M" },

+ { 0x10DE0425, "GeForce 8600M GS" },

+ { 0x10DE0426, "GeForce 8400M GT" },

+ { 0x10DE0427, "GeForce 8400M GS" },

+ { 0x10DE0429, "Quadro NVS 140M" },

+ { 0x10DE042A, "Quadro NVS 130M" },

+ { 0x10DE042B, "Quadro NVS 135M" },

This should cover the all the recently released Santa Rosa based laptops with Nvidia cards such as the Lenovo T61 (140M) and the Dell Latitude D630 (135M). Debian already has packages available at:
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/xserver-xorg-video-nv

As always thank you!
