ciao.
ho debian lenny. ho scaricato da apt il kernel 2.6.25-2-686, con gli header del 2.6.25-2-686 e linux-image-2.6-686. ho anche scaricato la nuova versione dei driver nvidia: 173.14.12
ho dovuto modificare il puntamento a gcc, poichè la versione 4.3 all'installer nvidia non piaceva, passando dalla gcc-4.3 a gcc-4.1 (comando ln -s gcc-4.1 gcc con precedente rimozione del link simbolico al gcc-4.3)
in fase di installazione dei driver nvidia, compare il seguente errore, agevolo il log:

-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you li
   ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel f
   rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? (Answer: No)
-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; this means
   that the installer will need to compile a new kernel interface.

ERROR: The kernel you are installing for is a Xen kernel!
       
       The NVIDIA driver does not currently work on Xen kernels. If 
       you are using a stock distribution kernel, please install 
       a variant of this kernel without Xen support; if this is a 
       custom kernel, please install a standard Linux kernel.  Then 
       try installing the NVIDIA kernel module again.
ERROR: Installation has failed.  Please see the file
       '/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for details.  You may find suggestions
       on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux
       driver download page at www.nvidia.com.
qualche idea?
grazie
