I have a NVIDIA GeForce3, and the "nv" driver doesn't work very well. I want to compile the "nvidia" driver from the sources, but I don't know how to do it. I have installed nvidia-kernel-source and nvidia-glx-source, but I don't know how to make the .deb packages to install. What commands do I issue to do this?
Thanks


I don't really think you need to have a .deb pkg to do that since you're 'patching' the kernel.
However enter Nvidia_kernel dir and type 'make install', then go to Nvidia_glx and do the same. Then you have to edit the XFREE config file as stated in the nividia installation guide on nvidia site.

I went to the nvidia_kernel dir and typed 'make install', but it said "*** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop." The nvidia_kernel dir is under /usr/src/modules. I have made a .deb file from /usr/src/modules for some alsa-modules, but I can't remember how to do it. Any ideas?
Thanks
