Package: linux-image-2.6.18-2-686 Version: 2.6.18-5 Severity: normal Hello,
I have a Sony Vaio S-380 laptop with an nvidia GeForce Go 6200 graphics card. I have been using the nvidiafb module with the 2.6.16-2-686 kernel, but when I tried to upgrade to 2.6.17-2, 2.6.18-1, and now 2.6.18-2 kernels, the system freezes when the module is loaded. The freeze occurs after the display changes to use the full screen, and the message "nvidiafb: Flat panel dithering disabled" is printed.
