Description Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-13 06:54:23 UTC
nvidia-drivers doesn't compile on 2.6.19. config.h has finally gone away (this has been included through a -i flag on every call to gcc since 2.6.15), and the regs ptr has been dropped from the IRQ handling path and is now only available as a global variable.

This patch works against 8774 and 9625.

Is the patch from anywhere or from you?  Also, I assume that this is safe to apply unconditionally, since it appears to do its own kernel checks.  Is that right?
Comment 3 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-13 08:35:57 UTC
Yes, it's from me, and should be applied unconditionally.
