Public bug reported:
Running Hardy (8.04)
The linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-16-xen package is missing the nvidia
modules.
The package record (apt-cache show) suggest nvidia support but the
package doesn't actually contain any nvidia modules unlike the linux-
restricted-modules-2.6.24-16-generic package.

Description: Non-free Linux 2.6.24 modules on Xen
This package provides restricted modules for Linux version 2.6.24 on
Xen dom0 and domU.
Currently the following modules are included:
- madwifi (Atheros)
- fglrx (ATI)
- nvidia
.
These modules are "restricted" because they are not available under a

Origin: Ubuntu
(although I'm using my local resp, I've checked other mirrors too, in
case it had been updated since my last sync)
