so i make a directory copy of 2.4.31, name 2.6.15 and try to load nvidia module from there
|
is is there in the testing dir, u can remove 2.6 dir u created and isntall that package it will install modules for 2.6 kernel
go to dir #installpkg kernel-modules-2.6.13-i486-1.tgz
but for nvidia (i had posted it ones)
u have to download the installer from nvidia if u r usinf 2.6 kernel u have to install its source first( in the 2nd cd kernel-source-2.6.13-noarch-1.tgz)
i am just pasting the earlier o post of mine
----1st---
this is the problem, nvidia driver yu have to install it first and if needed edit the xorg.conf file.
go to nvidias site, it is a good script it will even edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file (i have the thing but it is 11 mb, its name is NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8174-pkg1.run )and get the file it is an installer (*.run file) they r also giving a help file.
before runing u need the kernel source to installed in ur machine
(it wil b there in ur /usr/src/)
when u run the installer (#sh installer.run i think)from the root
it wil edit the conf file, so need to worry after that u can c ur X
----2nd--
i managed to get the link now
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/L...-8174-pkg1.run
what u want to do is
#wget -c
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/L...-8174-pkg1.run
(copy paste above link hi :^))
$cd /to/the/directory/where it is downloaded
# sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8174-pkg#.run
it will ask for editng the conf file press ok
this part is editing xorg.conf by hand if needed only from their site.(it will automatically edit xorg.conf file if not u do this.)
-------------------
If you have a working X config file for a different driver (such as the “nv” or “vesa” driver), then simply edit the file as follows.
Remove the line:
Driver "nv"
(or Driver "vesa")
(or Driver "fbdev")
and replace it with the line:
Driver "nvidia"
Remove the following lines:
Load "dri"
Load "GLCore"
In the Module section of the file, add the line (if it does not already exist):
Load "glx"
------------------
i think after this only u could even use alsaconf ok
best of luck and regards
