Unable to build the NVIDIA kernel module(linux-image-2.6.21-2-686)
I cannot install the official nvidia driver completely after I upgraded debian by apt-get. Also the linux-image has been upgraded to 2.6.21-2-686 from 2.6.18-4-686. So I have to reinstall the official nvidia driver and install a new linux-headers-2.6.21-2-686 for compiling. But when I installed the driver, it didn't work very well. Here is a log file.

-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you li
ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel f
rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? (Answer: No)
-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; this means
that the installer will need to compile a new kernel interface.

Rep:
i have had no problem installing the official NVIDIA kernel for 2.6.21.686 as well as 2.6.22.686.....make sure you have the correct version of kbuild as well....also i have found that installs go smoother if you uninstall prior nvidia drivers first...
nvidia-insatller --uninstall doesn't work. I install nvidia driver under linux-image-2.6.21-2-686 single mode. And I haven't removed linux-image-2.6.18-4-686. But I sure it doesn't matter. Where's the errors?
Everyone else did have a problem installing either ATI or NVidia on 2.6.21 Kernel versions.
You just need to download the patched NVidia installer down near the bottom of that page. Get the one for 100.14.11 on 2.6.21.
It's not that the NVidia driver has a problem with the para-virtualization support being turned on in the 2.6.21 Kernel, but rather the temporary GPL only stipulation for any modules built upon it. This is removed on 2.6.22 Kernels and those are making their way into Debian as well, being in Unstable (Sid) at the moment.
The patch just substitutes a GPL certified makefile for the NVidia.KO kernel module makefile so that the module can be built. The rest of the package and the driver are the same as the ones issued by NVidia.
Just do the normal installation, using that download instead of the normal one and you'll be fine. I still have that driver installed and my 3D gaming and Beryl run great with it.
The normal nvidia-installer --uninstall procedure removes that driver the same as the normal one (which it is, except for the patch that installs the GPL certified NVidia.ko makefile replacing the one that is usually used by NVidia). I've had to uninstall and reinstall it a few times when some Kernel and xorg stuff got updated and it went smoothly. The patch warned me that it already existed and told me that if there's any trouble I could delete it from the directory it creates and copies it too but I had no problem so didn't need to do anything but nvidia-installer --uninstall, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, put the nv driver in, reboot and update that Kernel and xorg stuff, ctrl-alt-F1, login, reinstall it, and dpkg-reconfigure the NVIDIA driver back in.
Once we get the 2.6.22 Kernel we can go back to the normal NVidia driver or even install the Debian package version if desired.
