Provided you have unstable/non-free in your sources.list, it should work like this: - Install the "module-assistant" package. - Run "m-a update" and "m-a prepare" as root. - Then you can try to build and install the module like this: m-a a-i nvidia-kernel-source (Users of older cards will need nvidia-kernel-legacy-96xx-source or nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx-source instead.) - If you are successful in the previous steps then it should be possible to install the nvidia-glx package from unstable. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
