All,

I tried to update my 2.4.2 kernel to the latest but
there is a dependency conflict with my nvidia graphics
card.

There is a graphics driver for the updated kernel but
I'm guessing I need to update the kernel before the
driver otherwise they'll be a dependency conflict in
the other direction.

Don't update kernels. Just install them.
That should solve the first dependency error,
since the old kernel will still be there.

Then reboot to single user mode to install the
new NVIDIA driver.(download it befor you reboot :)
