I am trying to install the latest NVIDIA drivers on my SuSE
6.4 system. I have successfully installed XFree86 4.1.0. I first
tried using the SRPMS since there is no i386 RPM for SuSE 6.4 --
only for the 7.x versions. I get the following error which seems
to make no sense since my kernel is 2.2.14 and my rpm is 3.0.4-0, and
the file /tmp/files.lst DOES exist (it contains the line:
%attr(444 root root) /lib/modules/2.2.14/video/NVdriver
and NVdriver is in the /lib/modules/2.2.14/video directory).
+ exit 0
Processing files: NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-1541
Could not open %files file /tmp/files.lst: No such file or directory
PreReq: /bin/sh
Requires: kernel >= 2.2.0 rpm >= 3.0.4
Since the SRPMS didn't work I tried the tar.gz files. I read the
README file and checked to see that I have the kernel headers.They
appear to be there - /usr/include/linux is a link to
usr/src/linux/include/linux.
When I ran 'make install' as root I got the following errors:
ld -r -o Module-linux nv.o os-interface.o os-registry.o
ld -r -o NVdriver Module-linux Module-nvkernel

Can anyone help me to resolve this problem using either the SRPMS of
the
tar.gz files. Thanks in advance.

Jeff Stephens
