At present, module-assistant is failing to build current nvidia-kernel-source. It claims it cannot find the source tarball. You may need to build it by hand. To do so, unpack /usr/src/nvidia-kernel.tar.bz2 somewhere, cd into the directory and run: fakeroot debian/rules binary-modules KVERS=`uname -r` KSRC=/usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` This should produce a working package. Hopefully module-assistant or nvidia-kernel-source will be fixed soon so we can go back to using it! -- rob andrews :: pgp 0x5c205974 :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: kernel module eeprom causing system freeze
good question, however in my experience power failures (especially breakers going) seem to reset bios's from time to time. i will take a look at the bios battery, however there doesnt seem to be any problems with the bios retaining its settings.

Re: nvidia-glx not updating
looks like kernel module built is an older version check your mirror sources, um, what else, maybe flush out your apt cache. try apt-get source nvidia-graphics-drivers see what version it downloads.

kernel module eeprom causing system freeze
Hi all, after a circuit breaker caused a power outage, which reset the bios. debian is now freezing (solid) at 'Loading kernel module eeprom'.
