Using stock debian kernel-image. Install kernel headers with this command. apt-get install kernel-headers-$(uname -r) Create a sym link that points to the headers: ln -s /usr/src/kernel-headers-%(uname -r) /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build Then try to install the drivers by executing the nvidia installer. This should work for you if you are using a Debian kernel-image. -- Why do people who know the least know it the loudest? -- B. L. Jilek F92D0DD1 | Reap the Freedom!
