Do you have compiled the nvidia-glx? What I do to compile my nvidia drivers is: First of all download your kernel source or header. Afterwards you can use make-kpkg modules_image. With the nvidia-glx, after downloading it, it will be in /usr/src/nvidia-glx-/, so if you go to that directory you'll be able to do: "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakerrot -uc -us" When it's finished You'll find the nvidia-glx-.dev in the /usr/src/ directory and you'll be able to install it. > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Another problem I have is that with the 2.6 kernel I'm not able to make kernel-nvidia module. And have somebody tried to execute modprobe with the 2.6 kernel, 'cause I get some errors and I'd like to know if that is normal.

I've checked it out, and in there I've found a web whith a splash image howto, the web is: http://ruslug.rutgers.edu/~mcgrof/grub-images/ I hope you like it. (I have downloaded some splash images) ;) I didn't know about update-grub, thanks. But I'm curious about if it's possible to include in the kernel-image-x.deb installation the automatic grub update ( as it do whith lilo). Thanx.

Exim configuration
Hi, I'm trying to configure a mail server at home. I'm using exim, fetchmail and procmail. By now I can send mails to my box from local, but I don't know what I have to do to be able to receive mails from the internet. Do you know how to do it? Thanx.

kernel-package and grub
Hi folks, I have two questions for you: 1) Is there any way to update grub menu.lst when installing a kernel package made by kernel-package (I mean as it does whith lilo)? 2) Where can I get images to use in the splashimage of grub? Or how can I make some? Thanx. Engosh -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
