the debcof question was in nvidia-glx -- so, solved the initial
problem. but now this: nvidia-glx won't install. i initially made my
/usr partition too small, so I moved /usr/share to a separate
partition. now I get this error:
Preparing to replace nvidia-glx 1.0.4496-2.1 (using .../nvidia-glx_1.0.4496-10_i386.deb) ...
dpkg-divert: rename: rename `/usr/share/nvidia-glx/diversions/libGL.so.1' to `/usr/lib/libGL.so.1': Invalid cross-device link
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/nvidia-glx_1.0.4496-10_i386.deb (--unpack):
subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 2
anything I caan do to overcome this issue, short of reorganizing partitions?
