make SYSINCLUDE=/usr/src/linux/include
and remove this from the install.sh file:
#
# Build the driver.
#
make || {
echo Build error
exit 1
}
The running kernel and the sources need to be the same version.
You also need to remove all Mesa stuff on you machine.
Joust use the GLX rpm, it should work.
And add this to you XF86Config-4 file.
Section "Module"
Load "glx"
Load "dri"
EndSection
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
and change this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "GeForce256Pro"
Driver "nv"
EndSection
to this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "GeForce256Pro"
Driver "nvidia"
EndSection
now you should be able to run Q3 and other GL applications.
The drivers dos not work with out problems yet, i loose my icon
transparency when i turn on the glx drivers.
So joust out comment this:
Section "Module"
Load "glx"
Load "dri"
EndSection
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
when you don't need the glx drivers.
