Okay, I just updated my system by adding a 60 gig IBM hard drive. So...I had to
reinstall everything (v8.1) from the ground up. No problem, its been pretty
solid so far on my 30 gigger.
Everything went well until I hit video. I've got a 64 meg Nvidia Geforce 2
Titianium video card. I picked Xfree v4.10 with accel., but when I did a
"startx" it errored out. I reinstalled, picked XFree v4.10 with no accel.,
figuring I could install the usual Nvidia tarballs, which I had done before
under 8.0 and my last HD with v8.1...
I get this message:
/usr/include/linux/modversions.h:1:2: #error Modules should never use
kernel-headers system headers,
/usr/include/linux/modversions.h:2:2: #error but headers from an appropriate
kernel-source
make: *** [nv.o] Error 1
Okay, this makes me think that the kernel headers were not installed on my
system. One of my questions is; why? This is the same kind of install I've done
since 7.0 and always, always all the necessary kernel stuff was installed. I've
never had a problem installing the Nvidia drivers.
Now my last question is...how/where do I install what I need? I went to the
software (RPM) manager, and under installed, kernel docs/headers/source are
already listed so...where does that leave me?
Thanks in advance...
