Titel: xorg 7.1 today?
Was going to dist-upgrade this morning when I saw that nvidia-glx was to be removed and lots of xorg stuff to be upgraded. A check with apt-cache policy found 7.1.0-1 was the latest xserver-xorg version. Needless to say I didn't dist-upgrade and came here to see what the gurus had to advise. Smilie

worked for me but i had already upgraded my nvidia-glx package.

A new version with fixes for 7.1 came out a week or two ago

Well, I guess I should just wait for the package to migrate to sid. No hurry, everything works currently. And from your experience, everything should work in due course. Smilie

Remove nvidia-glx! Thats incompatible with my nvidia script!

Ah, I see why you guys don't have this problem. Sorry for not saying so earlier but this is my debian sid install and I install nvidia via the module assistant. As I have mentioned elsewhere I also maintain an up-to-date kanotix install and for that I use your nvidia script. Will be d-uing that this weekend.

I just d-ued the debian sid and everything went fine. The latest nvidia-glx (1.0.8774-3) is now in sid.
