The NVIDIA driver (version 8178) seems to work ok with the latest kernel.
There are a few patches to make, but hay, this is a testing release. Here
is the skinny on getting it to run:
1. Go here http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_1.0-8178.html
to get the NVIDIA driver.
2. Go here http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=62021 to get
the "zander" patch U012206.
3. On the target system, do the following:
mkdir /usr/X11R6
cd /usr/X11R6
ln -s ../lib64 lib64
cd lib64
ln -s xorg/modules modules
4. Now apply the patch from step 2 above following the instructions by
"zander"
5. Build the driver, change the xorg.conf file and you are good to go.
The step 3 changes are required because of changes to the xorg directory
paths. The nvidia configure program is still looking at the old structure.
If you do not do step 3, you will get errors saying GLX libraries and NVIDIA
driver could not be found. I would think the x86 changes would be similar
to the x86_64 mods.
Good Luck,
Jim
