Hi,

The kernel module is nvidia.ko. If there is an error building it, there will be info in /var/log/nvidia-installer.log as well as an error that is thrown up pointing to the log file when trying to build the kernel module. When successfully built and installed, it lives at /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko
the module is present there
"modprobe nvidia" should also throw an error if the module is successfully built and installed but has undefined symbol errors.
modprobe gives no error, and after lsmod tells me: nvidia 3931788 0
That means that the module is loaded right? Looks good.
Check the logfile for details of what went wrong.
the next step would be sax2 which still gives me the same error (I posted the log before)
As kernel changes have happened not too far back, the 71.86.11 driver may not be compatible, you can register and post via the very helpful http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14 Give details of your kernel version and attach the log.
I just want to be sure that it's really an issue to be posted there and not an issue of sax2. Please confirm again, and I'll post it there.
Thanks a lot Karl
From there starting X or init.5 if they work should point to sax2 as the
likely problem. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
