I eventually found that out. But it took a couple of years to happen, and it only broke on my 64-bit system. My solution on that system? Avoid the nvidia driver, and use the nv driver. It seems faster (for normal desktop work), and it handles dual monitors (two video cards), though not TwinView. So, ultimately, my mistake actually turned out to be a benefit. Though I'm /still/ using the regular nvidia binary installer on my 32-bit work laptop. What bugged me more was the latest xorg transition. Anyway, I hope Debian doesn't get as wrapped-around-the-axle with scripting the way RedHat did by version 8 (long ago). That's what prompted me to stop using RedHat. -- Q: Why is it that Mexico isn't sending anyone to the '84 summer games?

Re: Re: Need older nvidia-kernel-source (vers. 180.x.x)
Hi Randall, thanks for the older package. I checked it out and can now verify: There is a bug in nvidia-kernel or nvidia-glx. As I could not find out, which of the two, I could not send a bugreport. So I do it here. I also can not test on a 32-bit system, so this report is amd64-related only. Description: Using nvidia- version 180.x.x is running stable and fine. With an update to latest version 185.x.x it appears, whenever I start the application "tvbrowser" (which is needing and using heavy java), the windowmanager crashes. Crashes means: windows get puzzeled and look wiered (not easy to describe, sorry). It seems, this happens mostly running in KDE4, while this seldom appeared in lightweighted windowmanagers like XFCE or fluxbox. Does this help a little bit? I will be pleased to send more information, if required. Greetings Hans-J. Ullrich -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-amd64-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

You can get nvidia source from nvidia. http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_amd64_display_archive.html The source is inside the install package.

Need older nvidia-kernel-source (vers. 180.x.x)
Hi all, due to some crashes at the latest nvidia-driver of sid (version 185.x.x), I would like to get back to the version before, which was 180.x.x. Sadly I could not find it on snapshots.debian.net, so I hope, some maintainer might have it on his system and could send it to me or to snapshot.debian.net. My system is amd64. Would be nice!
