Hi,

I hate to ruin it but the update killied my X server dead. I'm
currently dist-updating to the latest kernel in case it is that. Some
of the logs, below, ssem to suggest that the upgrade is incomplete as
it is reporting the 6629 driver.


Code:
--------------------
    
  > grep -i nvrm /var/log/syslog
  Mar 31 16:35:40 localhost kernel: NVRM: loading NVIDIA Linux x86 NVIDIA Kernel Module  1.0-6629  Wed Nov  3 13:12:51 PST 2004
  Mar 31 16:35:51 localhost kernel: NVRM: client does not support versioning!!
