@Alberto Milone
I applied you attached patch to:
/var/lib/dpkg/info/nvidia-common.config
in addition to what I had already applied previously to:
/usr/share/pyshared/NvidiaDetector/nvidiadetector.py
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/nvidia-common
Same problem persists...
I guess Mike Stroyan has a point here... See his comment #19
He provided logical explanation for why this is happening and why it should be
fixed in postinst.d/dkms and not in nvidia-common, and he quoted the debconf
manual to justify his reasoning, which seems appropriate in this case..
After adding "1>&2" to the invocation of /etc/init.d/dkms_autoinstaller
in /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms as he recommended:
Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms
* Running DKMS auto installation service for kernel 2.6.30-phc1
* madwifi-hal (0.10.5.6)...
madwifi-hal (0.10.5.6): Already installed on this kernel.
[ OK ]
* nvidia (185.18.29)...

rt73-k2wrlz (3.0.3): Already installed on this kernel.
[ OK ]
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/nvidia-common
# (success)
So perhaps this bug should be changed to 'dkms' package instead of
'nvidia-common', don't you think?
