I don't see a good solution. What are the options? 1) Wipe XF86Config entirely, create a new one that works. Advantage - it works. Disadvantage - people with a nicely setup config that would be fine after simply recompiling the nvidia drivers will be angry. 2) Disable the "glx" module if present and the card is an nvidia. Advantages and disadvantages similar - it'd produce a working file, but annoy people who didn't want it modifying. I think the assumption is that if you're smart enough to get the nvidia drivers installed, you're smart enough to realise you'll have to recompile them after upgrading. -- adamw
