Well, that is exactly the problem. I tried several times initially to install it via apt but it could never do it. IIRC, there was no nvidia-glx package and so it would not install. This was a test of an installation BTW which ended up being only temporary. When I finally committed and gave over my main partition to Debian I decided to simply try it the old fashioned way and see how it went. So far so good, though I expect that may change at any time. Many thanks for the howto though. The next time I compile a kernel I will try it the Debian way, just to see how I perhaps messed up the first time.
