[linux-audio-user] Planet/Fedora/Nvidia Problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This question is really more related to installing drivers to a
"non-booted" kernel.

My computer has an ASUS MB.  The video (non-integrated) and network
require the nforce drivers from NVidia.  I had manually installed
some audio tools including a lowlat kernel under RedHat 9.  But I
decided to install Fedora Core 1 and use Planet CCRMA.  

So I installed the CCRMA kernel and source.  I didn't expect the
network or graphics to work when I booted the new kernel b/c I'd need
to install the NVidia drivers again under the new kernel.  But when
Fedora got to the "graphic" portion of the bootup, the screen went
blank.  I thought I'd just switch to VC1 and install from a text
logon, but I was never able to switch to VC1.  Now, in hindsight, I
think I didn't quite wait long enough for the system to boot up so
I'll try again tonight.  I was in a hurry and had to get to work this
morning.

But, if I had to boot the standard kernel, is there a way I could
install the NVidia drivers from there?  How do I tell them to compile
against the lowlat CCRMA kernel?  How do I tell them to install to
the appropriate place?  It doesn't seem like this would be terribly
difficult.  I just don't know what parameters/environment variables
to change.

Thanks,
Greg
