Ok,
I now have the proper source installed for my kernel...as far as I am aware.
Code:
[devin@192:~]$ls -l /usr/src/
total 24
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Apr 21 18:16 linux -> linux-2.6.3-8mdk/
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 4096 Apr 21 18:16 linux-2.6.3-8mdk/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 15 10:46 perl_programs/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 15 10:46 php/
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Apr 16 17:20 programs/
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 Apr 16 11:34 RPM/
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Apr 19 15:44 rpm
But when I reboted into failsafe it still would not install! Here is the error-log:

Using: nvidia-installer ncurses user interface
-> You appear to be running in runlevel 1; this may cause problems. For example: some distributions that use devfs do not run the devfs daemon in runlevel
1, making it difficult for nvidia-installer to correctly setup the kernel mo
dule configuration files. It is recommended that you quit installation now
and switch to runlevel 3 (`telinit 3`) before installing.
Quit installation now? (select 'No' to continue installation) (Answer: No)
-> License accepted.
-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you li
ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel f
rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? (Answer: Yes)
-> No matching precompiled kernel interface was found on the NVIDIA ftp site;
this means that the installer will need to compile a kernel interface for
your kernel.
-> Kernel source path: '/usr/src/linux'
-> Performing cc_version_check with CC="cc".
ERROR: Unable to determine the NVIDIA kernel module filename.
ERROR: Installation has failed. Please see the file
'/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for details. You may find suggestions
on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux
driver download page at www.nvidia.com.
Can anyone help with this? What am I doing wrong. Do I need to give you more info?
Thanks for the help.
