the headers DID match the running kernel, i checked that.

i will try that. But at the moment, i have a very stable system with older
multimedia kernel ...

That's an important thing i did not yet understand. What is the difference
between the kernel-multimedia-amd64 and rt19-20100103? When looking at the
naming of that kernels, the last one seems that rt19 has nothing todo with
multimedia ... and the rt kernel seems to be to be more a snapshot, then a
tested version....  (and remember, i got that rt19 kernel from a privat
repository, not from the official one...)
