hello there
i just downloaded and installed mandrake 10.1 official. one of the first thing i wanted to do was to install my nvidia drivers. so i download the thing, uncompress it, install the kernel core package with my installation dvd and "urpmi kernel-source", close x and start the installer. but then, it didnt work. it said that it couldnt find the kernel module or whatever and propose to download it from nvidia.com. of course, that doesnt work and then it proposes to compile it. then this error message :
error : unable to determine the nvidia kernel module filename
make: ***no rule to make the target "print-module-filename"
aborting
what the hell is that? i used to be on mandrake 10.1 and i installed those damned drivers (last version) a ridiculously large number of times. even on fedora core 3, with this version of the drivers, it went well. so what's the problem? what should i do?
so long, and thanks for all the fish
