---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Carl-Valentin Schmitt <cv.debian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: 2011/12/24 Subject: holy bim-bam ! kernels obviously have no bugs ! To: kernel-testers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Hello kernel-testers, here is Debian Squeeze 6.0.3 (stable) NVIDIA-installer depends on libc resp. on glibc and installing a kernel depends too on libc resp. on glibc. I have trouble with NVIDIA-installer and with installing a kernel ( I tried 3.1.2 and 3.1.5) NVIDIA-installer is breaking off to compile a nvidia-kernel. (all necessary packages are installed.) And I tried to compile a new kernel with 3.1.2 first , then with 3.1.5 both have same FATAL - report: Booting kernel 3.1.5 is breaking off with 2 lines of : FATAL : Could not load /lib/modules/3.1.5/modules. dep: No such file or directory ( in kernel 3.1.2 it were 3 lines of that FATAL error ) It looks as if Kernel is not finding my hard-disk, but SATA-modules are compiled. /lib/modules/3.1.5/modules.dep is existing as file. After I tried to install with nvidia-installer the bug-report by installing a kernel (make or make all is breaking off) changed to this output: LD drivers/gpu/stub/built-in.o CC drivers/gpu/vga/vgaarb.o LD drivers/gpu/vga/built-in.o LD drivers/gpu/built-in.o ld: error: drivers/gpu/vga/built-in.o: incompatible target make[2]: *** [drivers/gpu/built-in.o] Fehler 1 make[1]: *** [drivers/gpu] Fehler 2 make: *** [drivers] Fehler 2 It looks to me, that kernel-packages (which are taken out now from the list at www.kernel.org) had no bugs. It was a problem caused by libc resp. glibc ?! Here all package-dependencies of nvidia-installer and of installing a newer kernel are fulfilled. Now it is Christmas ' Eve. Have a nice and peaceful time. Greetings.
