As I said, things are working fine it's just that I'm curious as to why the nvidia driver was not found.You need the following packages: nvidia-glx : user-space bites libgl1-nvidia-glx : libgl1 for the nvidia driver nvidia-libvdpau1 : Makes vdpau work nvidia-settings : Settings for the nvidia driver nvidia-xconfig : builds a working xorg.conf nvidia-kernel-2.6-686 : Meta package will keep the nVidia kernel modules in lockset with new stock kernels Run # nvidia-xconfig
The full procedure is: update-pciids apt-get install module-assistant nvidia-kernel-source m-a prepare m-a a-i nvidia apt-get install nvidia-glx depmod -a modprobe nvidia dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
This will setup the xorg.conf Then reload X Also see [1] [1] http://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers#Installation-1 ------ Regards, Angus Hedger Debian GNU/Linux User PGP Public Key 0xEE6A4B97
