Bug#598144: rt2500pci: very low transfers and link quality

[David Sanchez Herrero <david.krusty@gmail.com>]

Hi again,

I need to compile the graphics card drivers (Nvidia) and I can't find headers for 2.6.35 kernel in the repository (deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian experimental main).

Instead, I install linux-image-2.6.36-rc5-686, that has header packages available, but I can't install header packages because a dependency error:

# aptitude -t experimental install linux-headers-2.6.36-rc5-686
Se instalarán los siguiente paquetes NUEVOS:     
  linux-headers-2.6.36-rc5-686{b} linux-headers-2.6.36-rc5-common{a} 
0 paquetes actualizados, 2 nuevos instalados, 0 para eliminar y 230 sin actualizar.
Necesito descargar 4691kB de ficheros. Después de desempaquetar se usarán 29,9MB.
No se satisfacen las dependencias de los siguientes paquetes:
  linux-headers-2.6.36-rc5-686: Depende: linux-kbuild-2.6.36 que es un paquete virtual.
Las acciones siguientes resolverán estas dependencias

     Mantener los paquetes siguientes en la versión actual:
1)     linux-headers-2.6.36-rc5-686 [Sin instalar]         



¿Acepta esta solución? [Y/n/q/?]


what can I do??

Please test Linux 2.6.35 as packaged in experimental.  If this isn't any
better, please send a bug report to linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org and
cc the bug address 598144@bugs.debian.org .
