In fact, I used to have the nvidiaG01 package installed, but no longer use it.
I am not sure when exactly it got uninstalled, it may have been during the
update. I had compiled and installed 2.6.24 kernel in the meantime, so I didn't
want the kernel update (was quite hard to get rid of it, BTW), and probably had
to get rid of nvidiaG01 for that as well, which made sense, since I already use
the nvidia driver package from nvidia.com anyways.
Yes, I do have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvidia-postun with last modification time
of 3. Feb 01:50, which roughly co-incides with the update. It contains my old,
proper xorg.conf, but with "nvidia" replaced with "nv". Note that this
xorg.conf file will not work with "nv" driver, because it's a multi-monitor
setup. I understand that in many cases for other users it would.
I hope you're going to fix this anyways. Maybe even reconsider how you treat
xorg.conf in updates.
Please always keep the xorg.conf that the user has, don't regenerate it. If you
have reason to believe that the new SaX2 would do a better job at generating
it, ask the admin for explicit approval first, and tell him where the old file
was saved, and call the files xorg.conf.saxold.<N>, allowing several backups,
where <N> is an incremented number, or the last modification time of the file
before the move, in ISO form.
