I decided to follow the advise in one of Florian' links (Thanks Florian)
and use the NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-8178-1444349.diff.txt patch to the 7676
driver. After fixing a few links, it's up and running.
Must say that I'm a bit bemused at applying an 8178 patch to the 7676
driver, but have not gone through the patch to check. I'm equally
puzzled as to why the 8178 patched driver does not work as my chip is on
the list.
As an aside I'd comment that the biggest pain was the crash forced an
fsck and on a couple of occasions also required manually running a full
fsck.
Thanks to Florian and Hugo for their help.
Regards,
Tim
