Oops. /usr/src/modules/nvidia... I just tried it on my sid amd64 machine: rm -rf /usr/src/modules/nvidia* (or m-a clean nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx should do that) m-a a-i -t nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx -l 2.6.29-1-amd64,2.6.29-2-amd64 It built and installed. I did have to remove my non legacy modules packages first though since they conflict of course. It built fine though and resulted in: -rw-r--r-- 1 root src 2680158 2009-05-11 18:20 /usr/src/nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx-2.6.29-1-amd64_173.14.18-1+2.6.29-3_amd64.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root src 2680146 2009-05-11 18:21 /usr/src/nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx-2.6.29-2-amd64_173.14.18-1+2.6.29-4_amd64.deb So it seems to work with both 2.6.29 kernel ABIs released by debian so far. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
