Re: Confused: nvidia on AMD64???
I don't know about the rest of the list but there are some things I don't like to depend on my distro for. Kernel source, alsa, and nvidia drivers just to name a few. I just updated the latest nvidia drivers the other day and got them from nvidia.com at the url below:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html
They work just fine.

I followed several howto's (even from the people that wrote it worked, e.g. Stefan Salewski's "NVidia driver successfully installed!" and his link http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/Debian-nVidia/installation.html) but I cannot apt-get the nvidia-kernel-source from any of the mentioned repositories.
