RE: [gentoo-user] nvidia drivers don't compile under kernel 2.6.24

2008-02-19 Thread Sjakie
I had this problem once with some other software. I fixed it by setting 
/usr/src/linux to the same directory as the kernel i was using. Before that 
change it was pointing to an older kernel version.

You can do this with eselect kernel list and then eselect kernel set

Subject: [gentoo-user] nvidia  drivers don't compile under kernel 2.6.24

Hi.  I tried using kernel 2.6.24-gentoo-r2 -- however the nvidia
drivers  version 100.14.19 complains that it is unable to determine
the kernel version.  I did some googling, but saw no solution to this
problem, but it seems others are having difficulties with this also.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

This was done already before the problem occurred.

I had the same problem, but didn't research it to far.   To fix it I just
used the masked version and it compiled fine.  Been running for a couple
weeks and haven't noticed any issues with them either.
