Kernel source broken and Nvidia revisions out of sync

Bug Description

1. After booting the xen-source kernel, after 2-15 mins, system locks up. Reports ata1: timeout and everything locks up, I'm guessing it's the SATA driver.

2. The nvidia drivers in xen-source restricted modules are 2-revisions away from the nvidia-glx package, hence X won't start due to an nvidia version mismatch. This is an easy fix, someone just needs sort out matching revision numbers.

My machine running a current Edgy, 1Gb RAM, Opteron 144, NVidia 5200FX, i386 distro, normally runs flawlessly [!]

Incidentally, this is BEFORE I even get chance to run a Xen instance, i.e. the machine locks up WHILE I am trying to download nvidia drivers etc ...

I'm having the nvidia version mismatch problem too.

Shoud this not be two bugs? The nvidia problem is very easy to confirm and understand, but the good-guess-SATA-problem is not.

I second the above request, please split this one up. I am having the nvidia issue but not the first one.
