I did install nvidia-glx but it remove xserver-xorg... so I do not
have a 'X' program anymoe in /usr/bin/X11/X

Is there anyone else using nvidia out there ?


I am using Nvidia on Debian Testing. I knew nvidia was broken in Testing, so I added an Unstable repository in /etc/apt/sources.list pulled nvidia from there. To do so, I have the following files:
----------------------------------
$> cat /etc/apt/apt.conf
APT::Authentication::TrustCDROM "true";
Acquire::::Proxy "false";
APT::Default-Release "testing";
----------------------------------

----------------------------------
$> cat /etc/apt/preferences
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=testing
Pin-Priority: 900

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 300
----------------------------------


Then I did an 'aptitude update' and then, IIRC, I did 'aptitude -t unstable install <nvidia packages here>' to get nvidia related packages from unstable.

After that, I removed the Unstable repository from /etc/apt/sources.list with plans to enable it when I wanted to check nvidia at a later date.

Regards.
