nvidia driver troubles
I downloaded the nvidia kernel and the glx from nvidia's site, but when I tried to build the kernel with 'make install' it gave me an unresolved symbol error. When i tried 'insmod NVdriver' I got several unresolved errors. I read on some other message board that my problem has something to do with my linux kernel version but I am not quite sure what to do to get it to work. Any suggestions?

Steps to install nvidia drivers on linux
This is how I installed nVidia drivers on a fresh 9.04 install(Step 1)
First grab the drivers from here put them in you /home/user folder (Step 2) Right Click, Terminal Install these three applications to prepare for the driver installation sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings binutils gcc (Step 3) press CTRL+ALT+F1 to take you into a non-X terminal thingy (Step 4) authenticate with your user account sudo killall gdm sudo killall openbox sudo ./NVIDIA* (Step 5) Run through the installation wizard. (Step 6) Afterwards, reboot your GUI, enabling the drivers, by typing (thx alt-SysRq-boom!) sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start P.S. i <3 #! edit: fixed reboot to gdm start |
