-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear Evan,
I get this kind of error message after a kernel update that affects the nvidia driver module for my graphics card. After a quick re-installation of the nvidia-driver the problem is usually solved. If you really upgraded your system as opposed to a fresh installation, this might be the reason, e.g. some left over graphics library.
