Public bug reported:

Using hardy with all the latest packages. Graphics hardware is an nVidia
GeForce Go 7600.

The nvidia-glx-new package (and presumably the other nvidia-glx
packages) installs a file at /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libglx.so. In older
versions of the package, this was a link to
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/libglx.so.xxx.xx, where xxx.xx was the nVidia
driver version number. However, with the current nvidia-glx-new, the
second file is now located at
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so.xxx.xx but
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/libglx.so still points to the old location. This
causes a broken link and as a result, anyone using the nvidia Xorg
driver ends up having glx broken/disabled. The link included with the
package should be updated to fix this.

** Affects: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu)
