nvidia-173xx available for xorg 1.10

Accordingly to
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showpos … stcount=12
Nvidia has released drivers compatible with xorg 1.10. Any plans to add this package again in extra repositories?

File a bug report, that's the best way to get it done. And yes, it will be, based on the announcement I read in the MLs.

Of course, I think the maintainer already knows by now, but informing them can't hurt. The forums are a bad place to do it though, devs don't check every thread here.

I am a 96xx user, not upgrading to Xorg1.10.
I am just wondering though, shouldn't the installed nvidia96xx drivers conflict (and thus get deleted by pacman ) with the xorg 1.10 upgrade?
