    I just upgraded to kernel 2.4.23 which meant that I have to recompile the
    nvidia drivers.

    During the build it detected that the kernel was build to gcc 3.2 but that I
    was using gcc 3.3 and said it would use that. But in needed a header file
    and said that it was looking in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.2/include/
    stdarg.h

    It couldn't find this because I have gcc 3.3.3 installed and not 3.3.2

    I got round it by symlinking 3.3.2 to 3.3.3 - but it seems to me that
    something is wrong somewhere. Problem is I don't know what - gcc should
    automatically find the correct place?
