Re: [Xen-users] about module nVidia GeForce 8400 G in Xen

Even if the driver worked, I used to get a lot of messages in syslog. I don't know if it's still the case.

I guess you've installed it on 2.6.18 right?

I have installed latest nvidia drivers on xen using Debian, Ubuntu and
Centos distributions.
Yesterday I've installed the 173.14.09 driver on Centos 5.2 x86_64.
The same driver works (better) also on Centos 5.1 i386.

You should install the kernel headers (kernel-xen-headers) and create
an 'include2' directory under the kernel headers tree.
Then you have to create a symbolic link to ../include/asm from that
new directory. So you will have:
- kernel_headers_dir/include/asm
- kernel_headers_dir/include2/asm

This makes the nvidia build scripts recognize the right assembly
includes (in the nvidia makefile there is a -Iinclude2/asm/mach-xen,
this is how I got this fix).

The driver works well but unfortunately I got no text consoles anymore
on amd64/x86_64 (X works fine, without issues). On i386 the driver
fully works.

I hope that this will help you, bye,
Emilio
