#1 Re: Xorg/nVidia/Lenny dead... Posted by dkg (216.254.xx.xx) on Thu 14 Jun 2007 at 18:04 Do you have apt-listchanges installed? Depending on how you configure that package, it can alert you as you run aptitude or apt-get to the /usr/share/doc/pkgname/NEWS.Debian.gz changes or even give you a list of all the updates to /usr/share/doc/pkgname/changelog.Debian.gz. If you read /usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-core/NEWS.Debian.gz, there was a description of some fairly intensive changes to xorg.conf recently in lenny. I don't use the nVidia drivers myself (i'm blessed with an X11 setup on a thinkpad X30 with the i810 module that doesn't need manual tweaking), so i don't know if that seeing that as it came in would have helped you. But i find it a useful way to keep up with what's going on anyway. hth!
