Product: Installation
Component: Installation
Summary: Development selected in groups, but kernel-sources were
not installed
Version: 1.790
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
After installing 9.1rc1 I tried to install the nvidia drivers;
this failed for 2 reasons, of which the second was not clear to me:
first, you have to do:
'export IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=true' before typing 'rpmbuild --rebuild NVidia_*'
if not it stops;
second you have to install the kernel source by doing
urpmi kernel-source(s)
Even though I had selected the development group (left bottom in Mandrake selection,
with LSB and dev. packages), the kernel sources were not installed. Also the error
message is not clear at all, and I believe beginners who own an nvidia card would bail
out at that point.
So could you make sure the kernel-sources are installed with the Mandrake selection
for development platform?
