Re: Nvidia Issues
Hi,
How do I "move" to woody? I am not sure what that means.

I'd strongly recommend getting the nvidia-glx-src and nvidia-kernel-src
packages and using them. They're in the contrib section on your local
Debian mirror.

The above packages document this, and explain how to overcome it. As
someone else said, though, you REALLY want to move to woody before you
