Description: NVIDIA binary kernel module source
This package builds the NVIDIA XFree86 4.x binary kernel module needed
by nvidia-glx. The drivers provide optimized hardware acceleration of
OpenGL
applications via a direct-rendering X Server and support the TNT,
TNT2, TNT Ultra, The GeForce series, nForce, and Quadro chipsets. AGP,
TV-out, and flat panel displays are also supported.
.
PLEASE read /usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernel-source/README.Debian for
building
information.
I use i386 debian sid (unstable) and I have problem compiling nvidia kernel
module with kernel I'm currently running, that is 2.6.8-10-amd64-k8.
/proc/cpuinfo says about my cpu:
model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 2800+
packages relevant to this problem that i have installed:
ii kernel-image-2.6-amd64-k8 101
ii kernel-image-2.6.8-10-amd64-k8 2.6.8-11
ii kernel-headers-2.6-amd64-k8 101
ii kernel-headers-2.6.8-10 2.6.8-11
ii kernel-headers-2.6.8-10-amd64-k8 2.6.8-11
ii amd64-libs 1.1
ii amd64-libs-dev 1.1
ii nvidia-kernel-common 1.0.6629+1
ii nvidia-kernel-source 1.0.6629+1-1
ii gcc-3.4 3.4.3-6
ii gcc-3.4-base 3.4.3-6
what i tried to build module in three ways:
1. building kernel module with module-assistant. i've an error with outpu:
---
NVIDIA: calling KBUILD...
make CC=gcc-3.4 -C /usr/src/linux
SUBDIRS=/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv modules
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.8-10-amd64-k8'

make[3]: *** [/usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv/nv.o] Error 1

2. i tried to use also 'debian/rules binary_modules' with same error
3. building kernel module with nvidia native installer, i've got the same
I also tried make additional settings for every one possibility listed
above. settings are below:
- exporting KSRC=/usr/src/linux
- exporting KVERS=2.6.8-10-amd64-k8
- exporting CC='gcc-3.4 -m64' did not help, it failed with this output:

I also tried to extract nvidia-kernel-source for amd64 distro but it
failed with

this is the same error as native nvidia installer outputs when gcc-3.4
-m64 is exported.
