 However, it seems that the module does not build against kernels older
 than 2.6.29 (subject to another bug report).

Compiles fine on 2.6.26-1-686 and 2.6.26-1-686-bigmem for me.
Well subject to the dealing with the missing control file (which my
patch had fixed in it, but must have been lost somewhere when the final
package was put together).

 Hello everyone,
 
 180.44-2 still does not build against 2.6.28, but it does build fine
 against 2.6.29, both debian stock kernels and headers.
 
 linux-kbuild are homemade since they seem to be missing from unstable
 and they are built according to:

 Could you try changing the line in
 /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/conftest.h that says:
 
 #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE = KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,29)
 
 to
 
 #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE = KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,27)
 
 And then doing module-assistant again but using the -O option to prevent
 it from reextracting?

Dear Len,

I will admit I have not understood half of what you wrote, however
modifying that line as you suggest and then launching:

j...@nostromo:~$ sudo m-a a-i -O -l 2.6.28-1-amd64 nvidia

built the package correctly.
I have not rebooted with 2.6.28 to test it, but I expect it to work.

I was holding back to 2.6.28 because of the nvidia module, now I can
safely switch full time to 2.6.29. However, I believe it is good to know
it's fixed.

Hope this helps, let me know if you need more testing.

At that point it will compile, but segfault, as it should..

Well I still don't understand why 2.6.27 and 2.6.28 want the 3 argument
version given the sources clearly to me appear to want the 4 argument.
Once I figure that out, we will update the package to do the right thing.
