Re: nvidia drivers for 2.6.9

thanks for the package: to make it prettier, i'll jsut do this:

you may also want to use the url for the patch download instead of a pre-downloaded file, to help out maintainers

Re: nvidia drivers for 2.6.9

the syntax is called BBCode (http://bbs.archlinux.org/faq.php?mode=bbcode)

i used the tags [ code ] blah [ /code ] (without spaces) which does the nice green formatting

Re: nvidia drivers for 2.6.9

hmm ...
i made a pkgbuild that uses a patched installer, instead of patching everything myself (because i never saw the actual patch files)

anyway, i'd like to see this package in testing, beside kernel 2.6.9 smile
thanks for the efforts

Re: nvidia drivers for 2.6.9

I tried that it does not include the pci_find_*.patch?
Could provide a bz2 file with the patches. I have a problem apply them to NVIDIA-* I get the malform patch message by cut and pasteing the above source patches.

I would really appreciate that.....

Thanks in advance....

Re: nvidia drivers for 2.6.9

hi the above is only posted that you can patch it on your own
when 2.6.9 is official then the nvidia package gets updated
with the above files smile

Re: nvidia drivers for 2.6.9

The thing is I create my own custom kernel with 2.6.9-bk?. All I need is the patch files to patch either 6111 or an earlier version of the nvidia driver.

Edit: I got the source patches. I will be applying them towards 6106, because sometimes 6111 hangs. I will use 6111 for a while to see if it hangs the I will fix 6106.
