Yes, I've now got 7.0 working - didn't try 6.9 after the first failure.
The nVidia drivers work fine with it too, although while drivers go to
the right place (/usr/lib/xorg/), they do try to put a couple of
libraries (libXvMCNVIDIA*) into /usr/X11R6/lib.

Any idea when a new linux-libc-headers package will be released? 2.6.12
is fairly old now, and apart from issues like this, it's missing things
like inotify support (forcing apps like gamin to package their own copy
of some of the headers).

Simon.
