Short answer: use Stable, dude. Or dist-upgrade correctly. Pulling "just some Sid packages" calls for trouble like that. Long answer: I have no means to prevent user from doing bad things, and the problem may be solved using stronger versioned dependencies in nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel-... packages. And I won't invent some hocus pocus to guess what the version may be and what other things may belong too, we have package attributes for this kind of problems. Reassigning to nvidia-glx...
