Hi Ivan,
Thanks for the reply. I made sure all my sources were in and it would
appear to be a compiler issue. The plot thickens. I haven't a clue what
to do from here as I'm not much of a coder. I'm a little out of my
element here.
Again, any help is appreciated.
Marcel

You appear to be compiling the NVIDIA kernel module with
a compiler different from the one that was used to compile
the running kernel. This may be perfectly fine, but there
are cases where this can lead to unexpected behaviour and
system crashes.
If you know what you are doing and want to override this
check, you can do so by setting IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH.
In any other case, set the CC environment variable to the
name of the compiler that was used to compile the kernel.

suggestions
on fixing installation problems in the README available on the
