Quoting Matt Zimmerman <mdz at ubuntu.com>:
The answer is: dist-upgrade will preserve all your settings when APT system
knows them. You have to follow
   4.1 How to install locally compiled packages: equivs
from APT HOWTO after you have installed a package from tarBall.
I did nVidia installation with APT and upgraded the system from Warty to Hoary.
nVidia and OpenGL drivers are working perfectly.
