I have an Nvidia FX5200 that I'd certainly like to get the nvidia drivers running on, and I had it working before in Etch, but now that I'm on Lenny I've been having to do the nv bit wanting for the xorg stuff to settle down a bit for now. But I'm getting ready to do the plunge and if it means installing a few things from sid then that's OK. As I recall, it has to do with the kernel mainly because of the configuration situation, and also nvidia-kernel-source has yet to propogate into testing and may not be in testing for the foreseeable future. I am not that well versed in the reasons why, but that's not really important just now. Can you detail more about what you did? Right now, I added in the sources for sid/unstable to /etc/apt/sources.list and did an aptitude update. I guess the next best thing to do now is to set up my machine to pin on testing because if I do a dist-upgrade with sid lines in there I'll probably end up running sid, which I'm not really prepared to do yet :). > Tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
