2.6 and nvidia
As a warning ... I was getting ready to upgrade my kernel to 2.6. I
downloaded the new nvidia package. I was following instructions from
/usr/share/doc without really thinking and did a "make" on the modules
package. Within seconds I got dumped out of X and have been unable to
start it ever since. The error messages I'm getting have to do with the
module versions not matching the kernel versions.
I have no idea how to get X back under my old kernel, and the new one
isn't ready to be used yet (basically nothing's working yet).
So as a warning....do NOT mess around with the latest nvidia packages
until you know for sure that the rest of the 2.6 kernel is going to work. :(
