 |
|
when booting the system, loading /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 makes this error when trying to load nvidia module:
| Code: | | QM_MODULE: function not implemented |
When i try to load nvidia module manually with modprobe it happens the same thing: QM_MODULE... and fails to find the module, if i use insmod it just fails to load the module.
On /lib/modules/2.6.x.x/video/ theres the modules nvidia.ko and it is specified at modules.dep;
I used the following kernels:
gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.10-r7
hardened-dev-sources-2.6.10-r3
mm-sources-2.6.10-r1
With kernel 2.4.x everything works right.
Can anyone help? |

You probably need to remerge sys-apps/module-init-tools: | Code: | | emerge -v sys-apps/module-init-tools |
cheers

emerging module-init-tools fixed the problem. modutils was merged instead. isn't it suppose to work right with 2.6 kernels?
thanks  |

I just read a post that the modutils is for 2.4 and module-init-tools is for 2.6.
Cant find the message thought  , so I make no guarantee thats correct.
I post a link in case I find it.
Now not the post I ment but has similar message.
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2141562-highlight-moduleinittools.html#2141562
Hope this helps.
Please correct me if there is a failure. |
