Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-headers-2.6.27-3-generic

Not sure if this is kernel or if it's nvidia.

Upgraded to 2.6.27-3 from 27-2 and nvidia 177.70 from 177.13

I have tried to use nvidia 173 and still no gdm. I have also tried to install the nvidia drivers from their website, and when I try to install them I get a xen kernel error.

Let me know what to post
