You need a little patch.

Got it -- thanks. Since I don't know how to patch a kernel, I will be happy to wait until it is incorporated in future kernel releases.
Thanks for your work, towo!
-
This is not a patch for the kernel, it's a patch for the driver.
Save tha paste to a file, e.g. /usr/src/nv-linux-3.13.patch.
cd /usr/src/nvidia-current-331.20/
patch -p1 < ../nv-linux-3.13.patch
Then you can build the module.
-
Then you can build the module.
I assume this means
apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-driver
??
The patch seemed to apply with no error. But after I reinstall nvidia-driver, I tried
modprobe nvidia
and the error says
ERROR: could not insert "nvidia_current": Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
What do I not know?
-
No!
After patching do
dkms build -m nvidia-current -v 331.20 -k 3.13-rc6-siduction-amd64
dkms install -m nvidia-current -v 331.20 -k 3.13-rc6-siduction-amd64
If you do a reinstall nvidia-driver, the patch is gone!
-
PERFECT!

After a routine apt-get dist-upgrade that included installing kernel 3.13 I cannot boot into the new kernel.
I am getting the same error in dmesg :
nvidia: Unknown symbol acpi_os_wait_events_complete (err 0)
It is the first time I have had this sort of problem with a new kernel so I apologise for being a little unsure as to what information to provide.
Do I need a patch like dibl to make this new kernel 3.13 work ?
thanks for any help

You have to use the driver from our fixes-repo, it has all patches in.
-
thanks for your help towo
I did say I am a kernel problem virgin :-[
I am taking a guess that I need to download the nvidia-driver (331.38-2.siduction.1)
will this automatically replace my existing
[/size]nvidia-driver: Installed: 319.82-1 ? or do I uninstall the existing driver first ? [size=78%]
[/size]
[/size]a guide or advice to the correct procedure would really help if you have time [size=78%]
[/size]thanks[size=78%]
-
Make a d-u, the driver will replace the installed one.
Make sure, you have added contrib non-free to the fixes sources.
-
Again I am embarrassed :-[
I have added the fixes repo so now a d-u wants to update ALL of the nvidea packages :
nvidia-kernel-dkms nvidia-vdpau-driver nvidia-alternative nvidia-driver libgl1-nvidia-glx xserver-xorg-video-nvidia
is this correct or should I be only updating nvidea-driver ?
thanks
-
Could it be, debian is not the right distro for you?
Some basics you should learn.
The nvidia-driver is not only one package, so you have to install/update all involved packages.

thanks for the help dibl
It is a fact you never stop learning with linux ;D

I've update today without problems with Nvidia driver.
