I recently installed 3.6 with the 2.6.7 kernel. I'm impressed with the stability. I updated apt-sources with videolan and got lbdvdcss....no problem. I installed synaptic and got the 2.6.7 kernel sources. I downloaded the run file from invidia and set gcc to 3.3. I got the following error message : warning: your kernel was configured to include rivafb support as a loadable module..... The rivafb driver conflicts with the nvidia driver.

Godot's workarounds didn't work this time. A mixed knx/deb system is a real challenge to noob like myself.

Any ideas? Cheers

I got yoru error once before as well, but I am getting some other errors once I ignore it. It gives me this:

you either have configured kernel sources matching your
kernel or the correct set of kernel headers installed

If you are using a Linux 2.6 kernel, please make sure
you have configured kernel sources matching your kernel
installed on your system. If you specified a separate
output directory using either the "KBUILD_OUTPUT" or
the "O" KBUILD parameter, make sure to specify this
directory with the SYSOUT environment variable or with
the appropriate nvidia-installer command line option.
