Comment 81 for bug 117314

I installed the new update because I suffered from the hard disk renaming (Intel PERL865 mainboard). Now I can boot again, however X11 does not start, because it claims it cannot load the nvidia kernel module (FATAL: Could not run the install command for nvidia). After some fiddling I could load it from the command line and launch X11 manually. However I wonder why it was not started on boot, because I just ran the same /sbin/lrm-video line I found in /etc/modules.d. Maybe some sort of a race condition on boot?

I do not use any RAID stuff - the / drive (containing all system components) is connected via PATA and is called /dev/sda. There are two more disks, both SATA (sdb, sdc), however they just contain Windows and some linux data - not needed for boot.

I also noticed that I could not start use VMware server in the manually started X11. Upon starting a virtual machine it just failed immediately with no error message. Trying sudo /etc/init.d vmware-server restart failed to load the kernel modules, too.
Is it correct that there is no updated linux-restricted-drivers package for the new kernel? Seems to be some sort of problem with kernel modules.
