just converted a .tgz with rightclick txz2xzm no problem(32bit virtualbox install > obconf from alien via usm)

on the subject of obconf, it fails to start, looking for libobrender.so.32(smthng like) where your openbox-3.6 provides only libobrender.so.28.. (repos are at 3.6.1)
am using a symlink *32>28 as a workaround which seems to work without issue...

Well, if you look carefully you'll see that the problem isn't related to Nvidia cards, but to xzm package creation.

I assumed it was the nvidia module since this GUI for txz2xzm is in 002 (same script in all desktops) and I have been right clicking on packages and converting them without any problems all day. Can anyone else confirm this bug?

Yeah, me too! But with this specific Nvidia package (although doesn't matter which version) I always face this weird bug.

It's not a .tgz. It's the .tgz. Read my step by step again

I could reproduce the problem with the nvidia driver txz2xzm. The problem comes from the tgz package itself.
The doinst.sh from the tgz package calls usr/sbin/nvidia-switch in the temporary root. The nvidia-switch script needs the temporary root in its $ROOT variable. Since it does not find this, it ends up overwriting libGL, libEGL, libGLES libraries on the actual root. Hence the odd system behavior and freezing is seen.

Thanks for the time you spent investigating this issue! Let's hope there's a solution.
