Hi all,
Can anyone tell me how to tell which vesion of gcc the knoppix kernel was compiled with? I am trying to compile NVIDIA kernel driver and getting an error because the kernel was compiled with a different gcc version.
If I can't find this out I have to figure out how to hack the make file to ignore the gcc version when compiling.
Cheers
Paul

Use this command to compile Nvidia Driver.

export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-2.95

Ahh I found out how to find out the version used to compile the running kernel :

# cat /proc/version

Linux version 2.4.20-xfs (root@Knoppix) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)) #1 SMP Mit Mär 26 15:37:36 CET 2003

--You will also see the same info if you do a ' dmesg | less '.
