how can I install NVIDIA_kernel driver into my 2.4.19 custom built kernel?
I have mandrake 9.0 and I copy the nvidia.o file in appropriate directory.. when I try 'modprobe nvidia' it says there are unsatisfied dependencies..
So are there any other modules required in order to install the nvidia.o module? I might have left them out of my custom kernel..
thanks

every time you change the system kernel you have to compile the Nvidia kernel again.

ok, so what should I do when I have my own kernel compiled? should I use the source RPM?

Yes, you have to either use the .src.rpm's or the .tar.gz's.
