Please post the output of the log file. Are the linux-headers installed? Half OT: Since Nov 5 I kick installing the driver to 3.0.7-rt20. Perhaps I try again this weekend. For the kernel-rt there's an additional issue, since 3 system calls from the rt patch need an additional patch, an illegal patch, that change the license. Perhaps Linux should become an OS for the rich people only, for those who can pay for Intel. Even the nv FLOSS driver was removed from testing. I kept it for usage with an old Nvidia card, since the FLOSS nouveau driver doesn't work with old Nvidi cards, even if it's claimed that it should work. Btw. even when I've got money to buy Intel, I don't do so, since throwaway society is polluting our planet with the hazardous computer waste. For my needs this "waste" is good enough to build a stable Linux DAW, so I got much equipment from bulk waste pick-up. This strange new Linux policy started some time ago. I e.g. needed to replace my 3 wheel mouse by a new one, since something was dropped, but I never found out what was dropped. Anyway, ethical improper, but the easiest way for a Linux user, would be to use Intel graphics. At least for DAWs :(, otherwise you are forced to offend the GNU or to run a multimedia machine that isn't able to use 3D apps, but some people might do audio and video productions. This Nvidia issue is a PITA and it's not caused by Nvidia only, some issues are made by some people from our community. - Ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
