Colin Thanks for your reply. would it be OK to address another issue with you regarding the linux-restricted modules. I have been unable to get an answer as to why the Nvidia restricted modules are packaged together with Atheros wireless drivers. This has caused me grief when I installed the NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-169.12 driver, as I could not then have wireless networking functioning with the new driver. I know it is your position that we should not leave the Debian install packages but it is very hard to keep up with best of compiz with the restricted drivers. If you have any way to separate restricted drivers I think it would help us. kenny
