Has anyone tried compiling the driver from sources? And succeeded, where the binary-only driver failed?
There are no sources for the "nvidia" driver, only for "nv": nvidia is closed source. There is, however, a kernel module that has to be compiled for every kernel change - absolutely necessary. It was in "/usr/src/kernel-modules/nv_glx/*". Read the README there. In the new style it is not there, the installer compiles it itself. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
