that's why I use --nodeps, and It works fine.

The only drawback for the new kernel : theses sh.. of nvidia drivers that 
completly hang my system, even if I use agpgart.
So 2 soluces : stick with the kernel-2.4.3-20mdk for 3D, or use 2.4.x-ymdk 
(with x > 3) but use nv drivers (no 3D).

If I'have to reboot in order to have 3D, I'd rather boot under windows.

I think I will use cooker kernel with devfsd enable and nv drivers and boot 
under windows for 3D and Games, unfortunately.
