New flash! First time I have seen such a thing. On Debian SId (unstable).

The two dkms modules I have:

Vboxdrv.ko built fine!

Nvidia kernel module does not build correctly: Make.log ends with:  Building 
modules, stage 2.
  MODPOST 1 modules
WARNING: could not find /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/295.20/build/.nv-

There have been past problems with nvidia stuff compiling for rt kernels which 
was fixable in the source. The above looks like something else! Something can 
be overridden to get this to modpost?

Anyway, a small step for -rt, a big step for linux audio :-)

(No objection to running nouveau but it is problably no good enough for DAW 
software which often has animation, i.e. meters, etc.)
