Schreiner 2011-04-30 14:43:22 UTC --- Dear Mr. Meissner, as I described under step 1, I first made the kernel update with a reboot afterward. In step 2, in the system console, I compiled and installed the NVIDIA drivers under kernel version 2.6.34.8-0.2, as I did it all time, when a new kernel release was installed. After this I made the second reboot, to boot the kernel within the new NVIDIA driver. Step 3 describes the result, which is a kernel error while initializing the driver by kdm.
