This happened with the packages of openSUSE 11.1 RC2. Not beeing able to build own modules with the provided kernel-source package is critical IMHO, correct me if I'm wrong. I could solve the problem by using the packages from the full-head-x86_64 tree. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Anyway, I leave this bug open for verification of next build. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As coolo already stated, it doesn't depend on the build number, I should have had a closer look, sorry. The problem here is, that the updater provides a kernel update, where kernel-default, kernel-default-base and kernel-default-extra get updated, but the package kernel-source doesn't. Before: kernel-default-base-2.6.27.7-6.1 kernel-default-extra-2.6.27.7-6.1 kernel-default-2.6.27.7-6.1 kernel-source-2.6.27.7-6.2 After: kernel-default-base-2.6.27.7-8.1 kernel-default-extra-2.6.27.7-8.1 kernel-default-2.6.27.7-8.1 kernel-source-2.6.27.7-6.2 Therefore the nvidia driver installer says something about missing or wrong kernel sources (nvidia-installer.log will be attached). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

For the former, it would be helpful to know how you did the update and from which state to which, so that we can narrow down whether this is a repository or resolver problem. For the latter, shouldn't nvidia provide KMPs instead of compiling their crap on end user machines? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
