Description Doug Laidlaw 2011-05-17 17:14:36 CEST 
Description of problem:

After two reinstalls, errors traceable to DKMS have occurred.
(1) Bug# 1242 (Virtualbox):  I reinstalled after that bug cleared itself.  Then running the VirtualBox command in a terminal, it said that it couldn't find the module.  I had already run /etc/init.d/virtualbox.  Removing and rebuilding the dkms module fixed it.  I don't have any guest OS installed, but I am going to rebuild the dkms for guest additions for completeness.
(2) Nvidia driver: Much the same story.  The NV driver refused to install until I rebuilt it.  Running Test in XFdrake failed, and I still had nouveau after a reboot, but I think that it was because of the conflict with nouveau.  Rebooting WITHOUT running Test, the nvidia driver was installed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

This bug is old, and changes in Cauldron were huge. Please re-open it if it is still there.
