RH9 Nub trying to install NVIDIA display drivers
hello =P
im running linux red hat 9, and im trying to install the Nvidia display drivers. now in the readme it tells me to cd into the nvidia_kernel directory. i do that and then type make install according to the readme, that should word, but i keep getting this: 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 am a total nub so i dont know how to go about "setting IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH" any help here would be hot . |
imho it would be --ignore-cc-mismatch

imho it would be --ignore-cc-mismatch
When exactly do you insert this line? Before the selected pkg..after the selected pkg? By it self? Maybe you could be a little more specific. AJ |
why arent you using the shell script provided by nvidia?
|
yeah. nvidia provided one. i used it and now im using my vcard. :) thanks to all the help i got from here...
they got a .run file.use it. view the readme of nvidia and you should be fine. |
