The nvidia-kernel module has been compiled without errors, but after

and the system freeze...
did you put nvidia as a driver in your xorg.conf?
yes, I did
Do you see the nvidia logo when you start X?
no, I didn't
Can you go back to a console after the black screen? (Ctr-Alt-F1 for
example)
no, Ctr-Alt-Fxx doesn't run
or ssh in the machine?
Yes, it is possible to login with ssh, and for example I see this process
# ps ax | grep X
3473 tty7 Ds+ 0:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 -audit 0 -auth
/var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt7
3555 pts/0 S<+ 0:00 grep X
... seem that the X process is in uninterruptible sleep state ...
Any suggestion on other tests with ssh?
Did you try to disable DRI in your xorg.conf?
There is not any 'Load "/dri/"' line in my xorg.cong ... How can I
disable it?
I attach my xorg.conf , if could be useful
what's the output of
sudo grep -re \(EE\) /var/log/Xorg.0.log
the output is:
# sudo grep -re \(EE\) /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown
this means no errors I suppose...
a.
PS: not just related to NVIDIA, a list of these steps on the wiki
somewhere would be useful to help troubleshooting things when X is
going funny...
By the way, I have tried to follow the wiki:
http://code.goto10.org/projects/puredyne/wiki/VideoConf
but the driver doesn't build...
