[opensuse-kernel] How do I use the Nvidia module with kernel-rt?
I have installed the kernel-rt-2.6.22.5-31. I also have installed the kernel-source-2.6.22.5-31 which I assume belongs to the kernel-rt. Is this correct? However no matter what I try I can't get the Nvidia module (from the openSUSE Nvidia repository) working. I tried re-installing the nvidia drivers to no avail. Modprobe Nvidia still fails: # modprobe nvidia FATAL: Module nvidia not found. What else can I try to get 3d acceleration working with the kernel-rt? -- Regards, Aniruddha Please adhere to the OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org

Unless you really have some specific application that needs hard realtime reactions you're probably better off with a standard kernel

It's pretty unlikely that the driver will work with a RT preempt kernel anyways (or if it does still not cause latencies) It is very complicated and RT preempt changes some assumptions. -Andi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
