I have exactly the same error here. I tried to build my own kernel. All
is ok, but when I try to install the *.deb, I get the error during the
package configuration.
There is my configuration :
- Ubuntu 8.10. Installed from scratch, no upgrades from a previous version.
- Nvidia Driver version : 177.80 (from official Ubuntu repositories)
- Kernel sources from official Ubuntu repositories, with the phc patch
There is my error :
