there must have been some changes between 2.6.27.12-1 and 2.6.27.13-2 which have something to do with these missing symbols.
does anybody know anything about this error?
Have you filed into http://bugzilla.novell.com ?
not yet, because, factory-kernel is something "not-official". latest official-update-kernel for opensuse11.1 works, no problem. so the novell-guys propably would reject the bug-report.
But the SuSE-guys may not.
i asked Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de> directly. he said:
Sorry, we do not support the nvidia driver at all, if you use it, you are on your own :(
Please contact nvidia if you have any problems with this driver.
good luck,
Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> said the following on the opensuse-kernel-mailinglist:
It seems that we recently disabled paravirt on default config. So pv_* don't exist any more.
I guess it's a problem nvidia side, e.g. you are building with the old object refering to non-existing pv_*.
Disabling paravirt in the *default* config doesn't mean, to me at least, that that parameter has been removed - just disabled. And if so then they (SUSE) can re-enable it again. The goobly-dook language used by Takashi is simply meant to throw you off the scent: he is "[guessing] it's a problem nvidia side [sic]" but it isn't because SUSE disabled parvirt in the default config. Andreas told you to discuss it in opensuse-kernel and you should ask his opinion on this matter in that forum. Ciao. PS. Have a look yourself at the config file for the kernel and see whether "pv_*" exists and how it is set. -- "I do not instruct the uninterested; I do not help those who fail to try.
