Description of problem:
The Nvidia Kernel Driver for V1.0-2960 will note compile under the Limbo Beta,
it compiled without problem under RH 7.3 2.4.18-5

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download the NVIDIA V.10-2960 Kernel Source form the NVIDIA
website,http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=linux 
2. get the NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-2960.tar.gz file
3. untar the file
4. type make
5. does not complete
	

Actual Results:  The make stops with errors, the last page of display:

Expected Results:  The driver should compile with some warnings, and create a
NVdriver file to be installed

You may want to address this to nvidia; obviously their glue wrapper needs updating.

Comment 2 Anthony Spinillo 2002-07-08 21:53:50 UTC
Due to another problem (67983), I installed kernel-2.4.18-5.62
from Rawhide. I was able to compile, and install the Nvidia module.
X started fine. I did not get around to test any 3D apps.
I did not try to compile with the original Limbo stock kernel.
