If you are using a Linux 2.4 kernel, please make sure
you either have configured kernel sources matching your
kernel or the correct set of kernel headers installed
on your system.

If you are using a Linux 2.6 kernel, please make sure
you have configured kernel sources matching your kernel
installed on your system. If you specified a separate
output directory using either the "KBUILD_OUTPUT" or
the "O" KBUILD parameter, make sure to specify this
directory with the SYSOUT environment variable or with
the equivalent nvidia-installer command line option.

Depending on where and how the kernel sources (or the
kernel headers) were installed, you may need to specify
their location with the SYSSRC environment variable or
the equivalent nvidia-installer command line option.

> Working now with nvidia-drivers-195.36.03

Now my system wants to downgrade to 195.30 which of course still fails whereas, as reported, 195.36.03 installs (and works here). We're over 5 weeks old on this bug now.

Comment 7 Jason Lamb 2010-03-12 03:27:01 UTC
Portage also wants to downgrade my nvidia-drivers from 195.36.03 to 195.30, likely because of this notice from nVidia;

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/announcement.php?f=14

I was not able to emerge the 195.30 drivers by reusing the patch from this similar Gentoo bug report;

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=301318

However, I was able to emerge the 195.30 drivers by applying the patch from this post;

Good to know. I'm sticking with 195.36.03 until an upgrade is released. Apparently it's spinning some fans too much, but I have a fanless card :) Nothing has fried yet.

That's a pretty simple patch. The gentoo devs should use it.
Comment 12 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-27 02:31:37 UTC
For 2.6.33, please use 195.36.x series which is officially supported.
