Description Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-10-30 10:13:09 UTC 
I'm using KBUILD_OUTPUT to build my kernels. When I try to emerge nvidia-kernel,
the kernel module has unresolved symbols. This is caused by conftest.sh failing
to compile the test programs for remap_pfn_range and pci_get_class. 

This on the other hand is caused by asm/irq.h failing to include irq_vectors.h.
The file is located in ${KBUILD_OUTPUT}/include2/asm/mach-default, but
conftest.sh looks for it in ${KERNEL_SOURCE}/include/asm/mach-default.

Is this still an issue with the current releases of nvidia-drivers?

Reopen if you still have problems.
