Strange. I tried 7174 and down without success. Every time i had to use the script showed. I have to use 7667 or above with 2.6.13 in order to have nodes working correctly. It may also depend on xorg version.

Greetings!

It's kernel related. 2.6.13 doesn't create the nvidia devicess correctly
with udev, which with 2.6.13 is default. You can try to put this in the
local.start if you want to use this nvidia kernel versions:

for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do
      node="/dev/nvidia$i"
      rm -f $node
      mknod $node c 195 $i || echo "mknod \"$node\""
      chmod 0660 $node || echo "chmod \"$node\""
      chown :video $node || echo "chown \"$node\""
done
node="/dev/nvidiactl"
rm -f $node
mknod $node c 195 255 || echo "mknod \"$node\""
chmod 0666 $node || echo "chmod \"$node\""
chown :video $node || echo "chown \"$node\""

Hope it helps!


I doubt it's kernel related, I'm on a amd64 with 2.6.13-r3 here. And
nvidia-kernel 6626-r4 runs fine.
