Not sure about that, I take it you are running the current testing/Sid libc6 (2.13-4). The nvidia-kernel-dkms module sure compiles here on Wheezy/Sid amd64, and xorg doesn't crash when loading nvidia module. I don't run the Debian kernel though (custom 2.6.38.6). > Setting up nvidia-kernel-dkms (270.41.06-1) ... > Loading new nvidia-270.41.06 DKMS files... > First Installation: checking all kernels... > Building only for 2.6.38-2-amd64 > Building initial module for 2.6.38-2-amd64 > Done. > > nvidia.ko: > Running module version sanity check. > - Original module > - No original module exists within this kernel > - Installation > - Installing to /lib/modules/2.6.38-2-amd64/updates/dkms/ > > depmod... > Message from syslogd@feyerabend at May 15 11:35:38 ... > kernel:[ 177.226221] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP > > Message from syslogd@feyerabend at May 15 11:35:38 ... > kernel:[ 177.226223] last sysfs file: /sys/bus/acpi/drivers/NVIDIA ACPI > Video > Driver/uevent > > Message from syslogd@feyerabend at May 15 11:35:38 ... > kernel:[ 177.226406] Stack: > > Message from syslogd@feyerabend at May 15 11:35:38 ... > kernel:[ 177.226416] Call Trace: > > Message from syslogd@feyerabend at May 15 11:35:38 ... > kernel:[ 177.226841] Code: 00 ba 00 00 00 00 be 3c 00 00 00 41 ff 55 20 48 > 89 > c3 b9 01 00 00 00 ba 00 00 00 00 be 15 00 00 00 4c 89 ef 41 ff 55 20 49 89 c6 > <48> 8b 05 f7 6a c6 00 48 89 45 10 8b 05 f5 6a c6 00 89 45 18 0f > [snip crash trace] > May 15 11:35:38 feyerabend kernel: [ 177.226982] ---[ end trace > 58be261eea03ecf3 ]--- > root@feyerabend:~# > > [end of message] > Do you have the logs from the upgrade right before the crash, what packages got upgraded ? In between your different trials you cleaned up thoroughly ? I am thinking Nvidia .run here. I see new nvidia packages entered Sid, one is "nvidia-installer-cleanup" which may find some residual components of a previous install, it's worth a shot if you are still stuck with this problem. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
