Package: nvidia-kernel-dkms
Version: 195.36.24-1
Severity: grave
Tags: sid squeeze
Justification: renders package unusable
I installed the nvidia-195.36.24 package using kernel 2.6.32-3 in squeeze.
Shortly after installing, dkms automatically built the module for that kernel.
Unfortunately, upon upgrading to kernel 2.6.32-5, xorg crashes with an error
saying that no nvidia kernel module is installed for that kernel.
Basically dkms is not really automatically building and installing the newer
module
