[SOLVED] linux-3.0.1apiheaders[should read nvidia compile error]

[Rich]

Hi aus9
I'm glad they help you out.

I assumed you were omnipresent and can read my mind!

But I am, and I can, watch, you are currently thinking about how to implement a "get" script. And by all means, go
for it. You might want to take a look at  getFlash11.tcz  and  getskype.tcz  to use as examples for how to do this.

there is a newer version of nvidia 304.51 available in repositories ready for testing

Arslan S.

Not sure I am the best person to test it, but it works fantastically well IMHO

I may have some other things to say, but think in might not be in the spirit of the forum rules to say it here so have sent you a pm

cheers

EDIT

I found a post moved by a moderator  (for a different user) which I will tack onto so you can now ignore my pm thanks

[Arslan S.]

there is no secret going on here you can post any feedback

[aus9]

great I will post here

1) I can confirm that your tczs work for me as per http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,14128.0.html

2) But I am reluctant to suggest any warning in info be removed ....as not as expert. I note your warning in info file as

This extension is not compatible with Xorg-7.6 so Xorg-7.5 is recommended.

This warning according to my eyesight....I have selective eyesight and hearing....
appears for nvidia-glx but its own depends do not appear to force the user onto Xorg-7.5      

Instead the dependencies of nvidia-settings.tcz include

.Xorg-7.6-lib.tcz

and taking a stab in the dark, I wonder if our other friend has a bork as he has followed your xorg 7.5 info and maybe....somehow...not yet got this other dependency installed.

I have asked at that other thread what his onboot list is....as I am in Australia, if it is relevant I might not see his list before you do.

I mention it just in case it is useful. I don't want to mention it at his post, as he has yet to reply to Rich's suggestions on whether his card matches the chipsets to that driver etc etc.

I hope you see my point. Once again.....thanks heaps for your tczs.....they work great for me

Hi aus9
There is no Xorg-7.5-lib.tcz, only Xorg-7.6-lib.tcz. It is a dependency of many extensions whether you are running
Xorg or not.
