Package: nvidia-kernel-dkms 260.19.44-1 In testing distribution after last update package nvidia-kernel-dkms 260.19.44-1 produces NVIDIA kernel module with wrong version number inside. As a result Xorg can't start with nvidia because old kernel module version 195.* mismatches with version 260.* of other packages.
