Grendel,
I have the same board and graphics card but I can't get the 5336
nvidia drivers to load upI have nvidia-agp and agpgart loaded but
"modprobe nvidia" returns:
FATAL: Error inserting nvidia
(/lib/modules/2.6.1-gentoo/video/nvidia.ko): Unknown symbol in
module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
dmesg shows:
nvidia: no version magic, tainting kernel.
nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel.
nvidia: Unknown symbol class_simple_device_add
nvidia: Unknown symbol class_simple_destroy
nvidia: Unknown symbol class_simple_device_remove
nvidia: Unknown symbol class_simple_create
I do have: /lib/modules/2.6.1-gentoo/video/nvidia.ko
I've done modules-update and opengl-update nvidia but X won't start
unless I change the driver to "nv" from "nvidia" in the X conf. I'm
obviously missing something but it's not jumping out at me....
