Any hope of getting the answers to these questions from the package maintainer? Here is a draft header, based on my guesswork, that it should start after the syslog collector is active, and before the display managers. ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: nvidia-glx # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # X-Start-Before: $x-display-manager xdm kdm gdm sdm wdm nodm ldm # X-Stop-After: $x-display-manager xdm kdm gdm sdm wdm nodm ldm # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: NVidia X driver initialization # Description: Load kernel drivers needed for the NVidia video cards ### END INIT INFO The $x-display-manager virtual facility is not handled by all display managers yet, so I list them all individually too to make sure the script is inserted before the scripts not yet providing the $x-display-manager facility.
