Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nvidia-current
In Lucid 10.04:
I have a 4GB machine but the installation process installed a non-PAE kernel,
causing only 3GB to be available. I manually installed the PAE generic kernel
package (BUT FORGOT TO INSTALL THE HEADERS PACKAGE FOR IT) and rebooted, then I
installed nvidia-current. Installation did not report an error but X would not
start after reboot.
The cause was that the kernel driver compile failed because the headers
were missing.
I think nvidia-current should pull those in, and should report an
installation failure if they are missing.
** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu)
