Cc=gcc-3.4 didn't seem to do anything. Didn't return any errors, but nopthing has improved. Linux-kernel-headers installed.
Just for fun in did an apt-get remove gcc-4.0, which went fine. Then an install gcc-3.4, but aptitude says that it's already there. So I'm thinking "awsome" 3.4 is there, that's what was used to compile the kernel, I'm all set. Then I hit "unable to find development tool 'cc' in PATH. Pleas emake sure gcc is installed. If you are sure it is installed, please check that 'cc' shows in PATH. Can I borrow a decoder ring from someone? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gustin Johnson Sent: Wednesday, January 11, 2006 11:10 AM To: CLUG General Subject: Re: [clug-talk] nvidia fun -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Mike Bougie wrote: > No luck there.

Ok to proceed. Are you sure that the kernel headers are installed?

Failing all else, I can build you a kernel and package it as a .deb (so it can be easily/automatically upgraded by K/Ubuntu in the future) You should pick a kernel that is a closer match to your hardware than i386 anyway. cat /proc/cpuinfo will give all the info I need. > Hope this helps out.
