The install script reports a whole bunch of compiler errors similar to the following (from /var/log/nvidia-installer.log): ... /tmp/selfgz6767/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1/usr/src/nv/nv.c:2010: error: conflicting types for `nv_set_hotkey_occurred_flag' /tmp/selfgz6767/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1/usr/src/nv/nv.h:350: error: previous declaration of `nv_set_hotkey_occurred_flag' ... How can I fix it? Distro: SuSE 9.1 / Linux 2.6.4-54.5-smp (with the latest PWC/PWCX modules compiled in) NVidia installer: 1.0-5336 CPU: Intel P4 3.0 with HyperThreading Video: WinFast A360 (GeForce FX5700LE)
