I just installed nVidia drivers on Sid for the first time last night. I dunno what you're using, but I have kernel 2.6.10 and the package was nvidia-glx. I also have the stock 2.4 kernel installed (dormant though) that came off the Sarge CD I did the original install off of, for what it's worth.On Thursday 24 February 2005 05:15 pm, Andrew Schulman wrote:slider:/etc/apt# apt-get install nvidia-kernel-source nvidia-kernel-common Reading Package Lists...

So for now you'll have to add '-t unstable' to your apt-get command. For more details about installing the nvidia drivers, see http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/Debian-nVidia/.What a mess it is... I can't get KDE to start using "nvidia" only "nv" and I suspect it is because I have not installed glx but I found no packages for glx other than one that seems to require a 2.4.x kernel, which is installed with that package.
