Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-restricted-modules

as of 2.6.24-14 linux-restricted-modules is a dependency of the kernel
this blocks self installation of the propriatary driver or more
correctly the ability to reboot and keep the driver. The driver compiles
and works correctly but does not survive a reboot due to linux-
restricted-modules . linux-restricted-modules is not required by the
kernel and should be a suggests not a dependency.

** Affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
