> the 180 driver, will any future kernel updates work with this driver, or > am I in for another wild ride? > It is hard to guarantee anything, but since updates to Intrepid rather bring in code from newer kernels and the nvidia driver got updated to work with recent kernels, it should be ok (beside of the potential that the new driver has some new bugs). I suspect the change they did was to cope with a larger size of integer from acpi. This should be ok when the size is reduced again. You could install the -14 kernel from my ppa (link must be somewhere in this bug report) which has that acpi change reverted. This likely gets into proposed soon, since it seems not worth the trouble to have that in Intrepid and breaking for more people when it gets into updates.
