Now I've got a new weird problem. The NVIDIA TLS links are not being
created on boot. X refuses to start; it crashes on the Loading GLX
line.
When I do invoke-rc.d nvidia-glx force-reload; invoke-rc.d gdm
restart, X starts successfully.
Where do I check to make sure that /etc/init.d/nvidia-glx is getting
called on boot?
Sincerely,
Jonathan

I have used Andrew's Debian-nVidia HOWTO with success in the past. The
problem is that the nvidia-glx package is not available on testing at
this time. I can't use the unstable nvidia-glx package, because the
unstable package depends on xorg 1.7.0.
Is there a workaround, or should I bite the bullet and try installing
xorg 1.7.0? I would really prefer not to install xorg from unstable as
it looks like it will be a major PITA. All I want is the latest nvidia
drivers.
Sincerely,
Jonathan
