Hi,
Running squeeze on AMD64 arch, my system recently stopped to let me
get my consoles after I hit the ctrl+alt+Fn keys (n = 1 to 6).
When did it stop?
I can't be sure but that may coincide with that kernel*-trunk thing,
when I had to go back to the nv driver as I couldn't get the
proprietary Nvidia driver to compile with my new kernel.
FWIW, a few more details :
$ uname -a
Linux birdynam 2.6.32-3-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Feb 24 18:07:42 UTC 2010
x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G96 [GeForce
9400 GT] (rev a1)
So are you still running nv?
Yes
and what was the driver that wouldn't compile?
I run x86-195.36.15 on the latest Sid kernel and it compiles just
fine, but I don't (yet) have a AMD64 system.

Indeed. Forget this if it is beating a dead horse, but did you have
gcc-4.3 + gcc-4.4 both installed? I did and I set the symlink gcc to
gcc-4.3 and that got rid of the message.
Alternatively you can set CC to gcc-4.3 and it will compile.
195.36.15 is a lot better than nv and I am pretty sure will get rid of
your problems.
I haven't tried nouveau.
