NVidia drivers removed!
« on: January 30, 2008, 01:42:05 pm »
Hi,

My main diskless MD is now dead because LMCE has decided to remove the drivers from /lib/modules/xxx. I have no idea why it has decided to do this, as nothing has changed in the admin GUI.

Does anyone know why this happens?

This has actually happened to me three times now on this MD only, and the only easy fix has been to rebuild. When I tried reinstalling the driver package the required files were not put into /lib/modules/xxx, and the same happened when I downloaded the driver from nvidia.

Thanks,

Chris

I have no real knowledge of this, but could it be an automatic update process that is removing libs it thinks are not used on your system?
