This is a known issue with 7174 and kernels about 2.6.12.

After applying this patch the module inserts fine.

Can't start X though.. No modes seems to fit the monitor's (laptop lcd!) 
hsync range. I have no idea what that's about.. But that's also another 
story.

Bug#345335: nvidia-kernel-source: Module loading fails on amd64

2005-12-30 Thread Anders Ellenshøj Andersen
Package: nvidia-kernel-source
Version: 1.0.7174-3
Severity: important


Source compiles and resulting deb file installs fine. When you try to 
load the module with

# modprobe nvidia

i get this error (dmesg gives same error):

nvidia: Unknown symbol register_ioctl32_conversion
nvidia: Unknown symbol unregister_ioctl32_conversion
FATAL: Error inserting nvidia 
(/lib/modules/2.6.14-a6q-2/nvidia/nvidia.ko): Unknown symbol in module, 
or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

I tested the module using an x86 installation on the same system 
previously, and it worked fine.

Anders

P.s. I just noticed below that nvidia-glx wasn't installed. After 
installation I get the same error.

but I haven't put it in yet. Soon I hope to have a legacy version with
this patch included.
