updates-testing kernel does not build either, same error: [tom@tom 2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64]$ make mrproper scripts/Makefile.clean:17: /usr/src/kernels/2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64/drivers/infiniband/hw/amso1100/Makefile: No such file or directory make[3]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64/drivers/infiniband/hw/amso1100/Makefile'. Stop. make[2]: *** [drivers/infiniband/hw/amso1100] Error 2 make[1]: *** [drivers/infiniband] Error 2 make: *** [_clean_drivers] Error 2 End result is that I cannot use the Nvidia driver, thereby resulting in the inability to use wine for gaming. Any updates? Yeah, you're doing it wrong :) The place you're trying to build in just contains the kernel headers (for the purposes of building external modules, or user apps that require exported kernel specific info). If you want to build a kernel you need to download the kernel source rpm, install and build that. 2 things: 1) I am trying to build the nvidia binary module, and that is failing so I figured I would try to see what is going wrong. 2) I see no kernel-source in any of the repos and I've installed all of the other kernel packages like kernel-devel kernel-debuginfo etc. So where do I get the kernel-source rpm from? After removing the updates-testing kernel, kernel-devel and kernel-headers and reinstalling them from updates, and downloading the new nvidia driver, I was able to get it to compile without issue. |
