Hi

Is anyone having any luck with installing nvidia drivers?  I'm getting nowhere.

I just built and installed 2.6.8.  I used
 make mrproper
 make O=xxx mrproper
 make O=xxx oldconfig    (which used the Mdk 10.1 Official .config)
 make O=xxx
 make O=xxx modules_install
 make O=xxx install

It boots and appears to run with no problems.  However when I try to build the nvidia driver it falls over telling me that it's looking at the wrong source files.  There is only one source tree installed.

The directory in /lib/modules is 2.6.8.jeh-1 and the source tree is under /usr/src/linux-2.6.8.1-12mdk.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.  I'm at my witt's end...

TIA
Jim
