Why every *-amd64-* package is described as "obsoleted" by the corresponding -generic package? For example: linux-image-amd64-generic is obsoleted by linux-image-generic but it also depends on the same package! Why there is no linux-image-2.6.17-10-amd64-generic but only linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic? x86_64 is not supported any more? Im confused. Sorry if it is a bit off-topic but I am worried about laptop support for AMD64 which is much more popular in laptops than in desktops, right? I bought such a laptop only because of Linux (Ubuntu). > If you have the linux-restricted-modules package for 2.6.17-10 > installed then the binary blobs should still be fine. Ive installed lacking packages and nVidia proprie$ary driver is working with that 2.6.17-10 kernel. Thanks!
