Hello Michael,

sorry for my maybe stupid questions. It is my first time I am patching my graphics-driver. The last experiences there pretty aweful and I killed my X-Setup

I installed the packages manually, but now, if I try to deinstall it via aptitude/synaptic I get the warning, that a deinstall of any modalias version whats to deinstall also nvidia-common.
Therefore, what should I do to keep my system alive and to have an updated nvidia-driver?

Additionally there are many other packages in ppa for 9.04 byside the nvidia one. Should I install also any additional of them?
