ok, understood. so either nvidia changes the pre-built module-part (AFAIK the nvidia-kernel-module consists of 2 parts, a pre-built part and a part that has to be made at install-time) or i have a kernel, with paravirt enabled, so that latest pre-built nvidia-kernel-module fits.
You don't need pre-built stuff for nvidia module. The binary-only part of nvidia driver has nothing to do with paravirt, and the rest can be compiled from the source code.
ok, then it should work i think.
this issue has to be fixed in any way, BEFORE this factory-kernel becomes some day the official next opensuse-kernel or the official update-kernel for opensuse11.1.
It works on my machine. I just built nvidia.ko manually with the latest KOTD kernel. It's built and loaded fine.
whow! how did you do that? from where did you get your KOTD?
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/
which nvidia driver did you install?
nvidia-gfxG01-173.14.15.
i did the following: 1. downloaded nvidia driver from http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_180.22.html 2. extracted install-package with "NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-180.22-pkg2.run --extract-only" 3. updated kernel from within yast from repo at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/openSUSE_Factory/ 4. rebooted to runlevel 3 5. cd /usr/src/linux 6. make cloneconfig
Why do you need this at all? Installing kernel-source.rpm suffices.
7. make prepare 8. make modules_prepare 9. cd /tmp/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-180.22-pkg2.run 10. ./nvidia-installer -N
I'd build nvidia.ko directly by going to $NVIDIA/usr/src/nv and run "make module". Better to remove precompiled stuff, though. Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
