Re: [Xen-users] Anyone able to compile Nvidia on Ubuntu 7.10 or Fedora 8

["Emre Erenoglu" <erenoglu@xxxxxxxxx>]

HI Sadique,

Thanks for your response. However, we used to be able to use nvidia modules with some patches in the past. I'm reading some success still with latest versions, however, I never got it to work with Fedora 8 or Ubuntu 
7.10 kernel. some patches applied to the kernel seems to block the build (nvidia build process can't find kernel version somehow).

I'm a home XEN user, so I need it not only for 3D, but for better performance (scrolling is not good on my system with nv) and TV-Out.

Thanks,

Emre

The open source nv driver should work with xen out of the box, but you
may lose some good features like 3d acceleration that you are supposed
to get while using proprietary nvdia drivers. If you want nvdia
proprietary drivers to work with xen, the effort should come from
Nvidia, I think.
