Although the xorg problem seems to be resolved on AMD64, it seems that it still wants to remove nvidia-glx, which I assume could make things slower for users with the binary nvidia driver.

Perhaps this can be fixed by installing the version from experimental, but I have not tried. (I'll just wait.)

Some info:

      Code:

now the nouveau driver in kernel works well, but is not enabled in shl kernels,

there are alternatives, compiling new kernel or nvidia packages, read:

http://aptosid.com/index.php?name=PNphp ... =5012#5012

I see that your apt-get command does not automatically upgrade openoffice to libreoffice, you should also take care of that.

nvidia-glx is still in experimental.
nvidia-glx:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 195.36.31-6
Version table:
260.19.21-1 0
1 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ experimental/non-free i386 Packages
195.36.31-6 0
500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sid/non-free i386 Packages

after getting new xorg, activating experimental with non-free then
# apt-get update
# apt-get install nvidia-glx/experimental

When you wrote this, it was already enabled. 8)

Failed for me.

      Code:
root@yoda:/etc/apt/sources.list.d# apt-get install nvidia-glx/experimental
Lecture des listes de paquets... Fait
Construction de l'arbre des dépendances       
Lecture des informations d'état... Fait
Version choisie « 260.19.21-1 » (Debian:experimental [i386]) pour « nvidia-glx »
Certains paquets ne peuvent être installés. Ceci peut signifier
que vous avez demandé l'impossible, ou bien, si vous utilisez
la distribution unstable, que certains paquets n'ont pas encore

L'information suivante devrait vous aider à résoudre la situation :

Les paquets suivants contiennent des dépendances non satisfaites :

              Dépend: nvidia-kernel-260.19.21
E: Paquets défectueux

Then I installed libgl1-nvidia-glx: OK but when I wanted to install nvidia-kernel-260.19.21: this package does not exist.

hopimet, you need to activate the non-free of both sid and experimental.
When my sid didn't have non-free, and only experimental, I got exactly the same error as yours.
If you think you have already, please post the contents of
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list

(btw. je suis aussi parmi les francophone... mais en ce moment aptosid.fr ne fonctionne pas)

It's OK !!!!!! Many thx towo !!!!

Just a small problem: the movements of my touchpad seem now, very, very slow...

I think it can be modified somewhere ?

Salut munchan, tu es français ? belge ? suisse ? quebecois ? autre choix ?

Although I haven't tested it for functionality, a new nvidia-glx came now and so it will be upgraded instead of removed, which is what one expects. I'll mark this as solved.

Hi finotti,

I cannot confirm this by this morning (64bit):

      Code:
Die folgenden Pakete werden ENTFERNT:
  nvidia-glx openoffice.org-base-core openoffice.org-core openoffice.org-thesaurus-de openoffice.org-thesaurus-en-us
  virtualbox-ose-guest-x11 xserver-xorg-video-nv


ENTFERNT = REMOVED

EDIT:
with the frickel repo now apt proposes to update it. Thanks!

Insisting to use drivers who have been removed/replaced upstream is not a good solution, and calling for problems with a rolling release like Aptosid. xserver-xorg-video-nv is gone. For booting from live CD vesa is really good enough. For HDD installations nouveau will be nice in the future, but as it is today it will break with every kernel upgrade until userspace ABI is not upgraded. And there is the proprietary nvidia driver, reliable, easy to upgrade and well working.
Greetings,
Chris

just for me to be sure:

      Code:
nvidia-glx:
  Installiert: 195.36.31-6
  Kandidat:    260.19.36-0~frickel.1


The 195 is, according to my understanding, the proprietary one. Am I right?
Can I replace the 195 now by the 260?
Or shall I go experimental?

Sorry to ask, but may be I am the only one who cannot follow this detailed stuff...

Yes, follow the procedure given by towo a few posts above. It was succesful for me.

Then, it's possible that you will have a problem with your touchpad if you're using a laptop. You will find a solution on the other topic:
