[KERNEL-2.6.32] nvidia.ko: No such device

Amnon82 · 2009-12-30 12:46:15

[phil@philstv-desktop ~]$ sudo modprobe nvidia
FATAL: Error inserting nvidia (/lib/modules/2.6.32-ARCH/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko): No such device

Then I builded the driver myself:

still same result. Has anybody else the same problem?

I've x86_64 installed also. There I still run kernel 2.6.31 series with the same driver. Why does it don't work anymore?

wonder · 2009-12-30 17:08:13

remove nouveau from your system. is using the device and that's why you can't load nvidia

pacman -Qs nouveau

Amnon82 · 2009-12-30 17:17:32

Ok. Works again. Was the nouveau driver. tilt.

ngoonee · 2009-12-31 01:16:18

Obviously you can't use both at once?
