Hello,
I'm trying to install a nvidia driver on my system
System is debian sarge with new kernel 2.6.8.1, XEON proc, sata disks
and 1GB RAM.
The video card is a nvidia quadro PCI-E series card.
I downloaded the driver from nvidia,
Started it with:
Sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6111-pkg1.run
--kernel-source-path=/home/software/kernel2.6.8.1/linux-2.6.8.1
Then i get into the installation menu, i follow the menu options and the
program is building a kernel module and right after that i get:
Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'. This is most likely
because the kernel module was built using the wrong kernel source files.
Please make sure you have installed the kernel source files for your
kernel; on Red Hat Linux systems, for example, be sure you have the
'kernel-source' rpm installed. If you know the correct kernel source
files are installed, you may specify the kernel source path with the
'--kernel-source-path' commandline option.
I don't understand the error, i have a new kernel (uname -r gives
2.6.8.1) and the kernel source files are on the location i added
(/home/software/kernel2.6.8.1/linux-2.6.8.1)
This is my nvidia logfile:

you li
ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your

rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? (Answer: No)
-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; this
means
that the installer will need to compile a new kernel interface.
