I have installed fedora 11 and I want to connect my notebook to TV using s video cable and it is not working.

notebook: hp pavilion tx1000
NVIDIA graphics card 6150

please help me.

We need a lot more details, and a lot more effort on your part. Find the software package (Mythtv?), read the howto, let us know what you have managed and where you are stuck.

ERROR: Unable to find the kernel source tree for the currently running kernel.
Please make sure you have installed the kernel source files for your
kernel and that they are properly configured; on Red Hat Linux systems,
for example, be sure you have the 'kernel-source' or 'kernel-devel' RPM
installed. If you know the correct kernel source files are installed,
you may specify the kernel source path with the '--kernel-source-path'
command line option.

About the last post above:

I'm not much familiar with Fedora, but the message is telling you that the build process cannot find your kernel sources. I don't know if Fedora comes with the kernel sources by default or not, but your system evidently doesn't have it installed.
Use your package manager or some other means, to install the kernel sources that match your running kernel.

If you DO have the kernel source installed, follow the advice of the Error Message you got, and use the --kernel-source-path argument to specify the location of the sources.

thanks for the help
sh '/home/raja/Download/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-190.53-pkg1.run' --kernel-source-path /usr/src/kernels/2.6.30.10-105.fc11.i586


ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'. This happens most
frequently when this kernel module was built against the wrong or
improperly configured kernel sources, with a version of gcc that differs
from the one used to build the target kernel, or if a driver such as
rivafb/nvidiafb is present and prevents the NVIDIA kernel module from
obtaining ownership of the NVIDIA graphics device(s), or NVIDIA GPU
installed in this system is not supported by this NVIDIA Linux graphics
driver release.

Add Nvidia repository to your package manager.
then install this library "nvidia-gfxGO1-kmp-default"


If you have problem with installing NVIDIA ... see this beatiful site

hi I am in big issue:

I used the following command to install nvidia driver
sh '/home/raja/Download/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-190.53-pkg1.run' --kernel-source-path /usr/src/kernels/2.6.30.10-105.fc11.i586 $(uname -r)

And it installs successfully after the installation it asks do you want to update the xorg config and I choose 'Yes' after the installation screen blinks couple of time then it shows the black screen. I don't have any idea. Please help me.

I could able to move the mouse in the blank dark screen.
