6106 & 6111 "Unknown Symbol" Kernel 2.6.9
 

Wow this is annoying posting in Links.

Anyway, 6106 & 6111 appear to compile but won't load on my Slackware 10 (patched) system. 1gb DDR, Athlon XP 2600, Abit KD7 (333mhz) System. I get the same nvidia error log on both. I'll post it once I get back to X. Compiler is GCC 3.4.2 Could be a source path issue, but I doubt it, 6106 compiled just fine for me on 2.6.8.1

And there was much sorrow in the land....
 

As promised error log:

Re: 6106 & 6111 "Unknown Symbol" Kernel 2.6.9
 

lol, wow, I'm an idiot.
(newb)

Ok, so you overwrite that file. Can't you version the log file or something? See I really don't want to boot back into 2.6.9 recompile fail and then copy that file somewhere safe . :lame:

Re: 6106 & 6111 "Unknown Symbol" Kernel 2.6.9
 

If I'm not mistaken, 2.6.9 yet again breaks the nvidia driver. Until Nvidia releases a new driver, keep your old kernel and do not upgrade.

Re: 6106 & 6111 "Unknown Symbol" Kernel 2.6.9
 

actually, according to another thread, there's a patch out there that should fix the problem. (it's in another 2.6.9 related thread) I haven't had a chance to see if it works yet.

Re: 6106 & 6111 "Unknown Symbol" Kernel 2.6.9
 

There is a patch out yes, but I think it's not for the vanilla 2.6.9 kernel, but for the ck-tree. It might apply to the vanilla tree as well, I'm not sure.

Re: 6106 & 6111 "Unknown Symbol" Kernel 2.6.9
 

You can get a broken out patch from the ck-tree and patch it manually,which works fine for me.
http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/2.6/2....9-ck1/patches/

Download the patch and run:
from inside your kernel tree
