First of all, I don't care about the NVIDIA devs and their broken
bugreport scripts. NONE .. and I mean that, absolutely none of our
modules should be working the ways for application developers but
rather for our users and for us.

Having said that, my goal with the NVIDIA module is to get it installed
with X present .. and without stupid and retarded warnings about
modules still being loaded/active or supposed "old" files lying around.

So far, I've only succeeded in getting the kernel module compiled
outside the crap they call an installer. I haven't had to the time to
cope with the rest.

Have you tried compiling the module two times in a row? That should
pick up the old libraries lunar saves automatically and fail miserably.

IMHO, your changes hardly are an improvement.
