Re: nvidia-glx removes x-server???

[sgnumber3@hotmail.com]

This fixed the problem for me by installing version 8178.  Just add

  deb http://people.debian.org/~rdonald/nvidia unstable/amd64/
  deb http://people.debian.org/~rdonald/nvidia unstable/all/

to your sources.  Then:

  apt-get update

m-a gave me some problems so I did:

  rm -rf /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/
  rm /usr/src/nvidia-kernel*
  m-a a-i nvidia
  apt-get install nvidia-glx
  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

Not sure if the last step was necessary but now it works.  No problems
with nvidia-glx removing the xserver.
