I was just trying to compile the nvidia glx drivers and kernel module on
someone's machine for them running debian with 2.4.18-bf2.4 - however
using the standard 2.4.18 tree generates incompatiable kernel modules
for the bf2.4 kernel (not just a warning - but pages of unresolved
symbols too)
On my machines i have custom 2.4.18 kernel running and it is all
perfect.
I have tried: apt-get -b source kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4
which AFAIK unpacks the 2.4.18 vanilla tree, cooks it to bf2.4 and then
makes a kernel pacakge. All went without fault, so I used the kernel
tree it generated and it still compiled the nvidia module for 2.4.18
only.
I do have the bf2.4 headers - can they somehow be wacked into the
vanilla 2.4.18 source tree to do what I want? or is there some other
way to make a 2.4.18-bf2.4 compatible source tree?
TIA,
Ryan
