Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686 Version: 2.4.27-6 Severity: normal Following an upgrade from 2.4.27-2 to -6, the nvidia module from nvidia-kernel-2.4.27-1-686 stopped being able to be loaded, reporting unresolved symbols even to an explicit "modprobe nvidia".
Forcible downgrade of the kernel back to 2.4.27-2 solved the problem, thanks go to those on #debian that told me about the snapshots server where I could get the old .deb. I have preserved the aptitude log documenting the upgrade, and the XFree86.0.log and kern.log with both sane pre-upgrade and failing post-upgrade traces. Unfortunately, I didn't preserve the exact unresolved symbols info; but, if needed, can re-create the problem and get a log of that as well. If any of the above logs or the unresolved symbols log is needed, please tell, and I'll be happy to send it as well. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27-1-686 Locale: LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R (charmap=KOI8-R) Versions of packages kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686 depends on: ii coreutils [fileutils] 5.2.1-2 The GNU core utilities ii initrd-tools 0.1.74 tools to create initrd image for p ii modutils 2.4.26-1.2 Linux module utilities -- no debconf information
