You have been subscribed to a public bug:
When trying to install the new "xorg 7.5 / xserver 1.7" lucid is going to
uninstall nvidia-glx.
This in turn means no Nvidia proprietary drivers.
This is due to the fact that the package
xserver-xorg-core_1.7.2-2ubuntu2_amd64.deb
conflicts with the virtual package "xserver-xorg-video-5"
and the package nvidia-glx-185_185.18.36-0ubuntu9_amd64.deb
provides the very same package "xserver-xorg-video-5".
It should provide "xserver-xorg-video-6", just like the new nv driver does:
xserver-xorg-video-nv_2.1.15-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
This is a big problem as lucid alfa1 is about to be released.
Nvidia graphic cards are quite common among linux users.
Lucid ubuntu 10.04 pre-alfa1_amd64, fully updated
xserver-xorg 2:1.72-2ubuntu2
nvidia-glx 185.18.36-0ubuntu9
