RE: [opensuse] cannot compile NVIDIA driver on XEN [was unable to compile]

I've found this tutorial http://legroom.net/2008/06/22/ (Running Binary nVidia
Drivers under Xen Host), but can't get it work. When I try building the module
as written in the article (with "IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE=y make
SYSSRC=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build module"), I get an error telling me that
kernel is not supported, just like the install script. I have a Leadtek Winfast
Geforce 9600GT, so nVidia drivers are a must-have because the cooler all the
time at full rpm, and it makes quite a noise. If anyone else solved this
problem, please help. Thanks.

It's not supported. There was a patch for an old version of the
driver, but didn't work anymore last time I checked...

It's true. Actually I thought in same way when I posted it, but opposite.

No answer so far could mean no solution about it?
Or nobody knows, or nobody who knows has seen it.
Your question is specific to XEN and NVidia, not compiling, so the people
that know about those two things might not even read a problem about
"compilation". I was also misled, I thought it was a problem about
compilation in general.
Sorry :-)

:-) Talking about XEN and NVIDIA could be too wide, instead reporting the
error I get when compile is more specific as the error is about not finding
the kernel version.
But you could be right. I eventually get the opposite.
Thanks,
Jan
