Module problems with NVIDIA and 2.6.0-test8?
I recently built test8 and also the NVIDIA driver using the patches from minion.de. The compile had no errors and I can load the module without errors as well (aside from the "NVIDIA taints the kernel" message). However, even with the module loaded, X says it cannot initialize it and acts exactly as if the module was never there. Not much is left to work with in the logs so frankly I'm stumped. The system works fine with the "nv" driver and I had the driver working in test1. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this?

which version of nvidia driver are you using.

4496, sorry (can't believe I forgot to mention this). Perhaps I'll try one of the older drivers when I get home.

4496 works fine here with 2.6.0-test8. i had some issues with the GLX support, but re-installing the user-space part of the nvidia module has solved it. be sure to compile the module against the *right* kernel-includes.

Right now it's using the headers in /usr/src/linux which points to /usr/src/linux-2.6.0-test8/ which I used for my kernel.
