problem with test3-mm3 and nvidia drivers
I try to compile nvidia drivers (closed sources) with test3-mm3 but it doesn't work anymore.
I worked with test3-mm1 and older release.
I don't try with test3-mm2.
Is there any change at this point ? I don't ask for a solution (except if there is an easy way to solve it), I just would like to now if there are some changes, and if these changes will be kept in the futur.
I will warn the nvidia patch maintainer (minion.de) about it.
thanks

"Doesn't work" in what way? Fails to compile? Fails to insmod? X fails to come up? X comes up but misbehaves? Other?

It worked for me under -mm2.

They know, there's a patch for -test3-bk5 should Just Work for -mm3.
Linux 2.5 (2.5.75, 2.6.0-test2) updated 08/18/2003
This patch is the 1.0-4496 equivalent of the 1.0-4363 patch, the same installation instructions and comments apply. If you experience problems with this patch, please let me know.
In Linux 2.6.0-test3-bk5, PCI names related data structures were changed again, you will need to apply the incremental patch below to make the driver build on this kernel. The patch is trivial, if you are using another driver release, you shouldn't have trouble porting the change. Download:
