** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: grub
  
  This is what was in the menu.lst (I cutted out the commented lines):
  
  title         Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.19-7-generic
  root          (hd0,0)
  kernel                /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.19-7-generic 
root=UUID=bd1adc65-feab-4fde-a1c8-58f21c5ef27d ro quiet splash
  initrd                /boot/initrd.img-2.6.19-7-generic
  quiet
  savedefault
  
  title         Ubuntumemtest86+
  root          (hd0,0)
  kernel                /boot/memtest86+.bin
  quiet
  
  I had to add this to the menu.lst after I installed nvida-glx manually:
  
- title         Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.19-6-386
+ title         Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.19-7-386
  root          (hd0,0)
- kernel                /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.19-6-386 
root=UUID=bd1adc65-feab-4fde-a1c8-58f21c5ef27d ro quiet splash
- initrd                /boot/initrd.img-2.6.19-6-386
+ kernel                /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.19-7-386 
root=UUID=bd1adc65-feab-4fde-a1c8-58f21c5ef27d ro quiet splash
+ initrd                /boot/initrd.img-2.6.19-7-386
  quiet
  savedefault
  
- ... so I can boot into my machine. Seems it only updates the menu.lst
- when you install newer kernels and not older ones.

+ when you install a kernel. You have to do it manually. I tried it with
+ kernel 2.6.19-6-386 and kernel 2.6.19-7-386.
  
  Only that you know.
