Not very helpful, perhaps, but I had this same problem and compiled 2.6.3 with the kernel modules as per the instructions found here: http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/Debian-nVidia/installation.html (...more or less, anyway) and the problem went away. I'm not sure what was the original cause, however... I suspect that recompiling the 2.4.24 kernel with modules (or just the module, perhaps?) would also have solved the problem... That's may well be overkill, however. -- Daniel Teichert, BYU ECEn Dept.
