Hey all,

In a recent update the kernel was upgraded to 2.6.30, but when I rebooted there
was no corresponding nvidia module, so for now I've been using 2.6.26.

I thought there might be a more recent nvidia module in unstable, so I tried
that but I get:

node1:/home/joehill# aptitude -t unstable install nvidia-glx

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]

Does this mean that nvidia-glx will be upgraded? It seems to be saying it will
be removed...
