[SOLVED] Re: Nvidia Lenny today not working.
Hi, I grabbed nvidia-kernel-source[a] and nvidia-glx[b] from [1] a.nvidia-kernel-source_173.14.09-5_amd64.deb b.nvidia-glx_173.14.09-5_amd64.deb 1.http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers/ First installed kernel sources 173 then ran m-a as described before, installed nvidia-glx and everything went fine. The thing that has to be noticed is to get the kernel-sources that are compatible with xorg. Len, thank you for your suggestion. The wiki helped a lot on this issue too. Thanks to all.

You must install and compile nvidia-kernel, after this install the package nvidia-glx. Then, in xorg.conf change the driver from "nv" to "nvidia". If X failes to start, you can comment the entry > Load "glx" < out, so glx will not be used, only the kernel-module (just for testing purposes). Make sure, you have the latest Kernel-headers, Xorg version and nvidia-* installed. Good luck ! Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

The current driver doesn't have that directory anymore. m-a clean might help, or do: rm -rf /usr/src/modules/nvidia Then do the build again. I really wish module assistant would do a better job cleaning up before extracting new source code on top of old code. Very dumb design. Given you said you did clean, then I guess m-a's clean really doesn't do what it claims to do. Also make sure you actually have the right version of nvidia-kernel-source installed.

Nvidia Lenny today not working.
Hi, I'm on Lenny 2.6.26-1-amd64, xorg 1:7.3+16, when I try building the nvidia module with m-a -t -f clean,build,install nvidia I get /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv/nv.c: In function 'nv_kern_vma_nopage': /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv/nv.c:1832: error: 'NOPAGE_SIGBUS' undeclared (first use in this function) /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv/nv.c: At top level: /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv/nv.c:1839: error: unknown field 'nopage' specified in initializer /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv/nv.c:1839: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type make[4]: *** [/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv/nv.o] Error 1 make[3]: *** [_module_/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.26-1-amd64' NVIDIA: left KBUILD. nvidia.ko failed to build! make[2]: *** [module] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv' make[1]: *** [build-stamp] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel' make: *** [kdist_image] Error 2 For Lenny users there will be no nvidia propietary support? or there is another Debian way to install it?
