Hi, Still stuck with getting the nvidia driver loaded. I have the old video card re-installed-which is how I could use debian gui. SuSE and Knoppix both recognized this card without a hitch.

Thank you for the answers.I did look at the read me a nvidia and it didn't illuminate what would solve this. (I upgraded my video card and then had Xserver failure in debian.) Anyway here is the results of uname -a & my /usr/src/. Sorry I am having some problem- I can't copy and paste from kword
