Hi David, that could be useful, I shall give that a go when I get home from work tonight and report what happens. I've disabled rivafb (due to the nvidia driver conflict), so I'll have to rebuild the keernel, but I'll do it tonight, and let you know how I get on! Cheers, James David Liontooth

Is this in a pure64 environment, or in a 32-bit chroot? Also, could you send a link to where these binaries are distributed? I might have a play around once my graphics drivers work (being presumptious that they'll actually work in the end ;) ...) Cheers, James NaiosKAE{FR} [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Sven, Yes, the method in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernel-source/README.Debian works fine for a stock debian kernel. However, seeing as I'm trying to do this with a slightly modified kernel, I think I need patches for it. I did try both methods listed, but neither work. It's not really about

2.6.11 removed a few symbols that were present before. There are patches around that bring the symbols back, that may be an intermediate solution until NVidia updates the driver. I'll have a look into that... thanks for the pointer :) That having said, I you don't need great 3D performance,
