I just compiled Kernel 2.6.8.1 (Vanilla) and fixed subfs. I can live without 'splash', but not without X/KDE or the NVIDIA driver. The NVIDIA Driver won't recompile (I use 1.0-6111); saying it has no precompiled kernel interface. KDM won't even start. I use SuSE 9.1. Any ideas?
Please, tell us a little more about the errors. I use SuSe 9.1 Pro, I compile quite all the vanilla kernels, 2.6.8.1 worked fine, the Nvidia-6111 driver builds OK with this kernel. There are problems with the Nvidia driver for kernel >= 2.6.9-rc2-bk3 I gave a patch for that in the nvidia forum but can share it here if requested. If you like it, I've got the splash working with all the vanilla kernels. I don't keep any archive but I can share the bootsplash patch for kernel-2.6.9-rc3-bk1. Michel
