Sid: Kernel 3.8 + nvidia?

I upgraded yesterday, and also installed 3.8. I was wondering, has anyone else run into issues with the nvidia drivers with this kernel? I realize I have a kind of franken-driver situation: ii glx-alternative-nvidia 0.3.0 amd64allows the selection of NVIDIA as

Thanks, Mark, I'm glad it wasn't just me. I was lucky. I managed to boot back into 3.2.0, which is where I am now. Had to reinstall the nvidia driver, but all is good for now. --b On Thu, May 9, 2013 at 10:36 PM, Mark Allums wrote: > I upgraded yesterday, and also installed 3.8. I was wonder

On a Dell Precision M4600 laptop, I installed a clean Wheezy release, installed nvidia drivers along with the dkms packages that go with. Because of network driver trouble, I took the kernel from sid. After that, everything works fine. I mean, video is fine. Networking still a problem. Here is my

In my case, possibly my upgrades from experimental. I think I have seen a couple of other threads where pulling previous updates from experimental has lead to problems once the freeze ended. I'm going to downgrade to the nvidia drivers in sid and try 3.8 again. On Wed, May 15, 2013 at 2:46 AM, M

Well, I upgraded, which installed a newer version of the nvidia drivers (313-30). So I gave them a spin on 3.8-1. Booted up on it, and did a dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-kernel-dkms. It built fine, but at the end, a message popped up saying nvidia: Running module version sanity check. Error! Module ve

Had a chance to look in to this this evening. Apparently the nvidia-smi nvidia-settings nvidia-kernel-source libnvidia-ml1:amd64 packages are still at 304.88 rather than 313.30. I guess I'm going to try rolling everything back to 304.88... On Thu, May 16, 2013 at 4:54 AM, Brad Alexander wrote:

I was beaten to the punch. Before I could roll back to 304.88, 319.17 came out. I upgraded to it, and am now running with nvidia on 3.8.12. --b On Thu, May 16, 2013 at 7:47 PM, Brad Alexander wrote: > Had a chance to look in to this this evening. Apparently the nvidia-smi > nvidia-settings nvi
