Hi :)

dunno? I run pacman -S nvidia.

Hm?

    * etc/
    * etc/modprobe.d/
    * etc/modprobe.d/nouveau_blacklist.conf
    * lib/
    * lib/modules/
    * lib/modules/extramodules-3.1-ARCH/
    * lib/modules/extramodules-3.1-ARCH/nvidia.ko.gz

If I use self build kernels, how do I add the module, since the installer isn't in e.g. /usr/src?! Will the package install the module to all kernels?
There still is an unused kernel ...

> ls /media/archlinux/lib/modules/extra*
/media/archlinux/lib/modules/extramodules-2.6.32-lts:
version

/media/archlinux/lib/modules/extramodules-3.1-ARCH:
nvidia.ko.gz  version

... and the package didn't build a module, so there might be a reason to download from NVIDIA?!

> ls /media/archlinux/usr/src
linux-2.6.32.49-1-lts  linux-3.1.4-1-ARCH

No, I don't need it, I just wonder that it doesn't work.

Thanks,
