I installed the nvidia kernel (details below) and after that and rebooting:
I got the nvidia splash screen (the driver seems to load), but... the tv tuner card doesn't work, xine sound doesn't work and totem sound doesn't work. Interesting is that XMMS player sound does work. Without the nvidia stuff... the tv tuner, xine and totem all work (as does xmms). ----- Is this an issue between k7 and i386? Why is the nvidia driver screwing with the sound? I used gcc 3.3.5 to compile the nvidia-kernel (the original kernel was compiled with gcc 3.3.6) -- could this be causing all the trouble? I found this about the k7 kernels... http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/11/msg00022.html and wonder whether there is a more general issue here.
