Package: linux-image-2.6.25-2-686
Version: 2.6.25-7
Severity: normal
I tried to install the nVidia driver that comes with the nVidia
installer, the installer complains that my kernel (a 686) is a XEN
kernel, which it's not.
The 173.14.05 and the 173.14.12 versions of the installer both complain.
I asked a friend on the net, he had the same problem, and so he kept using a
2.6.24 kernel.
Maybe the headers are faulty instead of the image.

Bug in the NVidia installer, should be fixed in lenny.
