1 Greets,
2
3 I don't get it:
4
5 I was running tuxonice-sources-2.6.31 (amd64) for a while now and had
6 unmasked nvidia-drivers at kernel-change to get nvidia-drivers-190.36
7 back then. That worked fine so far.
8
9 At that time I had gcc-4.4.1, btw.
10
11 2 days ago I did some changes, got gcc-4.4.2 and also new
12 nvidia-drivers-190.40. The drivers compiled but didn't load, dmesg said:
13
14 nvidia: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
15
16 hmm
17
18 Tried some things then decided to go back to 190.36 ... but they don't
19 load as well. Yes, I removed the module (modprobe -r) before trying to
20 load the new one ...
21
22 I even tried to downgrade gcc again to get back to the gcc/nvidia-combo
23 that had worked before. No success.
24
25 Now I have a workstation without X and it's monday ;)
26
27 *sigh*
28
29 Any ideas? What do I miss here??

32
33 talks about mtrr, I have 8 GB in that machine and some "uncachable"
34 lines in that output, but it has worked before and I don't have an
35 according BIOS-entry.
36
37 I assume that's not the issue here ....

39 Thanks a lot, Stefan
