Hey,

there are a lot of posts about nforce, but nothing seems relevant to my problem.

My nforce audio (module: mvaudio.o) works fine in 2.4.25, but when I recompiled to 2.6.4, it would n't work. I use Gentoo, so I should jsut be able to type "emerge nforce-audio" and it should work. It doesn't and I get an error telling me so.

Therefore, I decided that I might as well just compile from the source on the Nvidia website. I did all that it told me to do, untarring etc. Then, I cd-ed into the nvaduio folder and did:

"
hamish@archimedes nvaudio $ make
make nvaudio.o

"

It was not properly compiled and I don't know what to do next.

Has anyone come accross this problem?

THanks in advance

Hi. I get the same error when trying to emerge nforce-audio. I know that it can work on this computer, since genkernel seems to work. Should something be added to the kernel configuration for this to work?

I am using a 2.6.7 kernel on an Athlon XP with an nv177 motherboard.
