Running a stock 2.6.10 kernel from unstable, sarge otherwise.
after:
apt-get install module-assistant nvidia-kernel-common
module-assistant auto-install nvidia
(as according to
http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/Debian-nVidia/installation.html)

an error message flashes on the screen and then I find out that the
build failed, then the View Continue Stop menu that doesn't do
anything useful (couldn't find the buildlog file in the modass dir).

Once I apt-get installed nvidia-kernel-source from unstable and
untarred from /usr/src, building the module worked flawlessly.

The turmoil surrounding the nvidia-kernel packages is unfortunate, but
I think there is a more graceful way to handle an unexpected
situation.

Once everything was in place, this software worked perfectly, and I
appreciate the work that has gone into it.

Thanks,
Rick Hull
