I used the line you provided and the old one for non-free. I repeated all the steps, cleaned, updated, upgraded, dist-upgraded. Same exact results. I commented out the old non-free source, repeated the above. Some upgrades were made, non germain to this topic. Installed the nvidia-kernel-source and common, then uncommented out the non-free source and tried to add nvidia-glx. same error. Same story with ia32-libs. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx dam64:/home/damon# apt-cache showpkg lsb-release Package: lsb-release Versions: Reverse Depends: lsb-core,lsb-release ia32-libs,lsb-release Dependencies: Provides: Reverse Provides: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx dam64:/home/damon# apt-cache showpkg nvidia-glx Package: nvidia-glx Versions: 1.0.7174-3 (/var/lib/apt/lists/bytekeeper.as28747.net_debian-amd64-alioth-old_debian-pure64_dists_sarge_non-free_binary-amd64_Packages) Reverse Depends: nvidia-settings,nvidia-glx 1.0.6106 mesag3,nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-source,nvidia-glx 1.0.7174 nvidia-glx-dev,nvidia-glx 1.0.7174 Dependencies: 1.0.7174-3 - nvidia-kernel-1.0.7174 (0 (null)) xserver-common (2 4.0.3) xlibmesa-glu (16 (null)) libglu (16 (null)) libglu1 (0 (null)) libc6 (2 2.3.2.ds1-4) nvidia-settings (0 (null)) nvidia-kernel-source (2 1.0.7174) nvidia-glx-src (0 (null)) nvidia-glx-src (0 (null)) Provides: 1.0.7174-3 - xserver Reverse Provides: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx dam64:/home/damon# apt-cache showpkg nvidia-kernel Package: nvidia-kernel Versions: Reverse Depends: nvidia-kernel-common,nvidia-kernel Dependencies: Provides: Reverse Provides: dam64:/home/damon# synaptic dam64:/home/damon# apt-cache showpkg nvidia-kernel Package: nvidia-kernel Versions: Reverse Depends: nvidia-kernel-common,nvidia-kernel Dependencies: Provides: Reverse Provides: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I must be doing something wrong, but short of a complete re-install can't imagine what. And my understanding of debian indicates that would not fix anything, but duplicate this same issue anyway.
