As a warning ... I was getting ready to upgrade my kernel to 2.6. I downloaded the new nvidia package. I was following instructions from /usr/share/doc without really thinking and did a "make" on the modules package. Within seconds I got dumped out of X and have been unable to start it ever since. The error messages I'm getting have to do with the module versions not matching the kernel versions.
I have no idea how to get X back under my old kernel, and the new one isn't ready to be used yet (basically nothing's working yet).
So as a warning....do NOT mess around with the latest nvidia packages until you know for sure that the rest of the 2.6 kernel is going to work. :(

Hi Emma, are you referring to 'make'ing X or the kernel? couldnt you just reinstall what was overriten? or remove the X packages and install them? -Kev
I used the nvidia installer and I use a 2.6.5 kernel
didnt miss a beat
