Hi all I have just compiled a new kernel using vanilla 2.6.11.5 which works sucessfully, however when I come to startx I get an error when using 1.0.6111 nvidia kernel and glx drivers. So I decided to emerge 1.0.6629 the latest stable build, unfortunally I am getting a build error [posted below]. As a little background, I used 6111 drivers with my previous kernel 2.6.10 as 6629 cause X to only show the nvidia logo though X runs unseen.
So if anyone has a suggestion on how to get 6629 to compile? stu ps. I am a new user to linux and this is my first new kernel since install so I may have missed something in the new kernel, or if there is another log that would help just shout and I will post. pps.
