I added the last two lines myself to obtain the nvidia-kernel-sources
(with success)

I've installed Debian 4.0r1 and now I want 3D support for my Nvidia
graphics card.
I'm following instructions as can be found on
http://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers
I can install the nvidia-kernel-sources, but not the nvidia-glx package.
The error given is:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nvidia-glx: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.5-5) but 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2 is to be
installed
Is there a way to solve this?
You are trying to install the nvidia-glx package from Sid (a.k.a.
"unstable", the "bleeding edge, may break at any time" branch of
Debian.) You have to install the 4.0r1 (Etch, "stable") version of the
package; this one depends on the proper version of libc6.
This is probably due to a misconfiguration of your package manager.
Please post the content of the following two files:
/etc/apt/sources.list
/etc/apt/preferences
(The second file might not exist on your system; this is OK.)
I would also like to see the output that you get from the following
command:
apt-cache policy nvidia-glx
