Hi,
I am having problems installing the NVIDIA drivers I have followed the advice given in a previous posting but get the following error when I "make install"
Get the tar's from
www.nvidia.com:
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86_...1.0-4191.tar.gz
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86_...1.0-4191.tar.gz
untar both
-tar -zxvf NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-4191.tar.gz
-tar -zxvf NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-4191.tar.gz
cd into NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-4191
su and make install
cd into NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-4191
make install
add nvidia to /etc/modules
echo nvidia >> /etc/modules
Edit your XF86Config (/etc/X11/XF86Config) file and change:
- Driver "nv" or Driver "vesa" into Driver "nvidia"
Add in the 'Module' section:
-Load "glx"
and remove (if those exist):
Load "dri"
Load "GLcore"
The error I get is
[root@fcuku NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-4191]# make install
You appear to be compiling the NVIDIA kernel module with
a compiler different from the one that was used to compile
the running kernel. This may be perfectly fine, but there
are cases where this can lead to unexpected behaviour and
system crashes.
If you know what you are doing and want to override this
check, you can do so by setting IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH.
In any other case, set the CC environment variable to the
name of the compiler that was used to compile the kernel.
*** Failed cc sanity check. Bailing out! ***
make: *** [gcc-check] Error 1
I have the latest kernel patch from RH and gcc is 3.2
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks.
