I've seen in various forums people having problems installing detonators into mandrake 9.1, with nobody giving a better answer than what we already know is the way to install them re: using either source RPMs or Taz files, building/compiling them and using the various install commands for each of them, then changing the "nv" line in the XF86Config-4 file to "nvidia". But what happens when it doesn’t work damn it!
For some reason I'm having a heck of a time installing these drivers, maybe someone out there has a better idea! Here are the ERROR messages:
(eg. used Taz.gz files, error after make install commands have been executed)
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.21-0.13mdk/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.o
HINT: You are trying to load a module without a GPL compatible license and it has unresolved symbols.
(Obviously they didn't install, but running the startx command anyway gives):
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the nvidia kernel driver!
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
(Also the GLX file installed fine, but obviously won’t make a difference since the kernel module isn’t installed properly)
(Using driver 4191, and XFree86 4.3.0)
HELP!
