Re: XFree86 display problems



I had to install the kernel source to do this, for which I used:

apt-get install kernel-source-2.4.18

I unzipped it and left it in /usr/src. Now when I try to do the step specified in the README for nvidia-kernel-src documentation, i.e.,

make-kpkg modules_image

I get a message telling me that the version of GCC I'm using is inconsistent with that used to compile the kernel, and it tells me to set IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH if I want to override this or set the CC environment variable to that used to compile the kernel. The GCC version installed is 2.95.4, and in looking at the man pages for make-kpkg I was unable to determine how I would specify this ignore variable anyways - what would be the syntax? Or how would I go about specifying the appropriate CC environment variable?

Thanks for all the help.

I have done that, but X still fails to start.

Take a look at /usr/share/doc/, there should be two folders under there
for those two packages, telling you what to do next.
