Here it is:

There are two builds, one with my modified-SMP configuration that I announced yesterday, the other with a uniprocessor-configured kernel.
rodin.s,
I am most keen to know if this fixes your USB crashing problem!
To anyone who has nVidia graphics, please test. I want to know that the Video Upgrade Wizard downloads both the 'nvidia_base' and 'nvidia_kmodule' packages. I wasn't able to test it myself.

"Managed to find an nV6200 with PCI-E. 5.1.4RC runs OK; used the VidWiz to d/l+install the nv-kmodule but when I tried to d/l the second module according to the panel instruction, I got "Oh dear, unable obtain size of remote file: ...ibiblio....-wary/ although it does seem to exist" Hope this helps?

"Hi I tried running the new versions of the nvidia drivers (the split files one for v71.86) on 5.1.4.1 and 5.1.3.4. I could install the drivers on 5.1.4.1 but couldn't get them to work. I got this error: Xorg.0.log: (II) Setting vga for screen 0. (**) NVIDIA(0): Depth 16, (--) framebuffer bpp 16 (==) NVIDIA(0): RGB weight 565 (==) NVIDIA(0): Default visual is TrueColor (==) NVIDIA(0): Using gamma correction (1.0, 1.0, 1.0) (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module! (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting *** (II) UnloadModule: "nvidia" (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. Fatal server error: no screens found But on 5.1.3.4 I couldn't install the second package, the kernel driver module. It said unable to get size or something. So I can't test that one. Please fix Barry.
