backing up one level from my previous posting on where one finds "modversions.h", let me ask a more general question -- has anyone successfully moved from a 2.4.20 kernel up to a recent (ideally, 2.5.70) kernel and rebuilt and re-installed their nvidia drivers? care to share the recipe? i've been trying to combine what i find at www.nvidia.com and more info at www.minion.de, but there are inevitable glitches in either the build or installation process. i've been exchanging email with the guy behind www.minion.de, and he's given me a couple more ideas, but is there anyone who's actually pulled this off and can produce a working recipe? loads of thanks in advance for the lucky winner. rday p.s. machine config: inspiron 8100 nvidia geforce2go 1600x1200 LCD display -- Robert P.
