Ah.  I compile my own kernel on a system and disable PARAVIRT.



The reason for its presence, to my small mind, is arcane ;-)

It is certainly a bug. If the Debian package doesn't put the modules 
where they need to be, then it is a Debian bug. I opened Bug#420523 
on it.


Oh, and Bug#420135 for the fact that the Debian nvidia-kernel-source

Yes, this response will "break the thread", because even though I'm 
running Kmail 1.9.6 (KDE 3.5.6) as suggested previously, there still 
is no option for replying to a single email inside of the Debian-User 
digest. Sorry.

Hmmm, I see now where our systems differ.

I'd been using linux-source-2.6.18 for the longest time but then
decided that I wanted a current kernel so grabbed vanilla 2.6.20.2
before linux-source-2.6.20 was created.

Also, I always use the vanilla nvidia driver even when using a
Debian kernel source tree.
