I actually use the nvidia-driver. I had build it for the sarge-kernel 2.6.8. and was surprised, that after my new installation of the 2.6.16-kernel there automatically the module nvidiafb was used... So, I think, that this module now is natively supported by newer kernels..? My sources.list actually looks like this: 8<------------ deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-amd64/debian/ stable main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-amd64/debian/ stable main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free #marillat #deb http://spello.sscnet.ucla.edu/marillat/ sarge main #deb http://spello.sscnet.ucla.edu/marillat/ sid main #deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ etch main #deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ etch main #deb-src ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main #deb http://spello.sscnet.ucla.edu/marillat/ sid main #deb http://ftp.debian-unofficial.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free #nvidia #deb http://people.debian.org/~rdonald/nvidia unstable/amd64/ #Goswins OO.o #wget http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://amd64.debian.net/~goswin/amd64-archive/amd64-archive_0.2_amd64.deb #http://amd64.debian.net/~goswin/amd64-archive/ # Converted 32bit debs deb file:///var/lib/amd64-archive sarge main contrib non-free # Only needed for sarge users (I think) deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/ ------------------>8 Actually I did not use dselect or aptitude this time, but only apt-get with the -t stable, -t testing or -t unstable option. With this method now all works fine. Aptitude did a mess last time with it's update! And to answer your last question: Up to now I use the stable xserver-xfree86. I didn't try to upgrade to Xorg, yet. Last time I said aptitude to install Xorg, it wanted to uninstall almost all my gnome and kde packages and broke it all up. > This is what I used: > deb http://spello.sscnet.ucla.edu/marillat/ sarge main I tried this one this afternoon, but it didn't work. sigi. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
