Thanks I will try it but I'm fairly certain that your driver also will
miss tons of symbols because Rial:s and mine module both faild on the
second step:
insmod NVdriver
I can't try you driver until I'm at home, my computer isn't online jet...
so I can't be certain that your driver also will fail (hope not) but why
did I get all this "unresolved symbol"? Several of this symbols look like
they are primary symbols, the kernel would panic if they wheren't there.
Have you recompiled you kernel your self, I haven't?
