* New upstream release. Supports the new X.org ABI (LP: #308410)
  * Fixed a problem that caused TV output on secondary TVs to be black and
    white on some GPUs.
  * Added the ability to run distribution provided pre- and post- installation
    hooks to 'nvidia-installer'; please see the 'nvidia-installer' manual page
    for details.
  * Fixed a problem that prevented X from starting on 2.6.29-rc1 with an error
    like the following:
    X:6500 map pfn expected mapping type write-combining for d0000000-d0500000,
    got uncached-minus
  * Fixed a server crash triggered by Kopete's new message popup when a composite
    manager is enabled.
  * Fixed a problem that caused nvidia-installer to remove Compiz's libglx.so.
  * Added "nvidia-uninstall" as a shortcut for "nvidia-installer --uninstall".
  * Improved compatibility with newer kernels.
* debian/nvidia-glx-71.preinst:
  - Correct typo in the removal of diversions of /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
* debian/nvidia-glx-71.postrm.in
  - Do not remove libGL.so (LP: #309116)
* debian/nvidia-glx-71-dev.preinst.in:
  - Add diversion on /usr/lib/libGL.so since (the postrm tries to remove it already)
* debian/control.in: Make it conflict with driver 180
* Make it easier to add the support for new flavours in nvidia-glx-VER.preinst
* Switch to DKMS patching system (in debian/rules) so as to have different
  patches for different kernel versions
* Drop ubuntu-71xx.patch since the driver is now compatible with the current kernel
* Test the existence of the dkms folder in nvidia-71-kernel-source.postinst
* Fix (LP: #262027) Make sure to remove (in nvidia-71-kernel-source.postinst)
  any directory which was not removed because of bug 261816
* Fix (LP: #261816) Replace "remove" with "remove|upgrade" in the case loop
  in nvidia-71-kernel-source.prerm so that older versions of the drivers are
  removed in case of upgrade
* Add diversions on /usr/lib/libGL.so.1, /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2,
  /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so without checking their existence in
  Ubuntu 32 bit too (LP: #287470)
* debian/scriptremove.sh:
  - Remove from source.
