NVIDIA GeForce4 448 go driver support

(1/4) > >>

Hi,

I have been trying to install the driver for NVIDIA GeForce4 448 go on TC 3.16.6.

I downloaded the installer NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.23-pkg1.run from the site and on running it, the installer gave me an error '/lib/modules/3.16.6-tinycore/build/include/linux/version.h' does not exist.

I followed the instructions on the post http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,16534.30.html but I get the above error.
I downloaded the kernel source using linux-kernel-sources-env.tcz.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Yogi_al

Hi,
don't know if that option is available in this version

--- Code: ---./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.23-pkg1.run --kernel-source-path=/usr/src

--- End code ---

Not sure which post you referring to exactly.

Juanito:
we're working on the nvidia-173.14.39 and nvidia-340.76 drivers - would they be helpful?

curaga:
I'm afraid you're out of luck. Nvidia has discontinued support for your card, and the old driver you link does not support any kernel released in the last 3 years. The newer drivers that work with current kernels do not support Geforce 4.

Hi Juanito,

I guess the driver nvidia-173.14.39 is for Legacy support I could try them and see if it works for me.

Alternatively, I was thinking of using an older version of TC like 3.8.4 and then try and run the NVIDIA package to see if it works.
