Sorry if I did a breach in netiquette, but, while I do agree steps for installing NVIDIA driver have no place here, I do remind You I posted here because a very basic installation of a standard debian system broke down simply installing the latest kernel from Backports (no other changes).
IMHO this is a Backports bug.
None tried to tackle this to-date.
A workaround was suggested instead.
I have no interest in using the proprietary drivers.
I *do* have interest in using a fairly recent kernel (WiFi card support).
What is the suggested fix?
Thanks in Advance
