The problem seems to be:
 failed in buffer_write(fd) (10, ret=-1): backend dpkg-deb during `./lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.24-5-generic/nvidia/nv-kernel.o': No space left on device

Could you please check if you really does not have the disk full?
Thanks.

nothing really worked on my computer after that, so I had to re-install, so I put the new Alpha 4 on here.
So I guess you can close the bug as it relates to me, for now, and I will file if it happens again.
