Without any success I've tried to build the closed source nvidia
graphics driver for ltsp 4.2.
What I've done:
o Download the nvidia driver archive
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8178-pkg1.run from the nvidia home page and
unpack this archive into /usr/src
o Download the kernel archive linux-2.6.16.1.tar.bz2 and unpack
into /usr/src
o cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8178-pkg1
o running this command
sudo ./nvidia-installer \
--accept-license \
--expert \
--no-network \
--no-rpms \
--no-backup \
--no-runlevel-check \
--kernel-name=2.6.16.1-ltsp-1 \
--no-opengl-headers \
--log-file-name=log \
--kernel-install-path=pkg/lib/modules/2.6.16.1-ltsp-1/kernel/driver/video \
--kernel-source-path=/usr/src/linux-2.6.16.1 \
--utility-prefix=pkg/usr \
--x-prefix=pkg/usr/X11R6 \
--x-module-path=pkg/usr/X11R6/lib/modules \
--opengl-prefix=pkg/usr
and ignore all warnings
o Copy the result over the Ltsp installation
cd pkg
sudo cp -a * /pkg/ltsp-4.2/i386
After adding XSERVER=nvidia and X4_MODULE_01=nvidia to the lts.conf and
restarting the terminal, I get the following error:
nvidia: modules disagrees about version of symbol copy_from_user
...
nvidia: modules disagrees about version of symbol copy_to_user
...
and the module wasn't loading.
Any help welcome
Peter
