Q: Hi, my
Im try to install nVidia drivers after installing xine.
Ive these drivers installed twice before, but ive never had this problem, can anyone assist?
this is what im doing
init 3 – to get out of X
then log in as root
then types:-
cd / she says this usr/src/linux
and cd / usr / src / linux /: No such file or directory
Ive installed make and gcc YaST and I run SuSE 9.1 Pro
Best Answer: "Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/software-center" (No such file or directory)"
Means either:
1.you deleted the file inside that location.
2.you downloaded it corrupt.
3.There is no file in that location.
4.Your computer cannot open the file in that directory.
Best solution:
uninstall everything and re-download.

Re:Hi ,
Yeah thats what i did at first but everytime i install the nVidia package from YOU my system freezes when it tries to start X .
I get as far as the login screen and then nuthing the login splashscreen just freezes something to do with enabling OpenGL/3D , so i started doing it from the .tar download , thats the only way ive been able to get 3D enabled to play UT2004 .
also [ i dont know if i still need to do this ] the last time i had to go and change the XF86Config. file to change "nv" to "nvidia" . and then add some a line to detect "AGP"
I didnt really know exactly what i was doing but It finally worked

Re:YaST should have an nVidia driver package available for download and install. It did on the last SuSE 9.1 machine I setup.
It doesn't install by default, but just fire up YaST, look at the software updates and you should see "nVidia" or "nVidia drivers" in the list. Check the box, say install, sit back, wait, and reboot. Done.

Re:damn , something else has to be done it says ?
I never done any this the last 2 time i installed these drivers .
It says :-
make [1] : *** [ check-meta ] error 1
make : *** [ cloneconfig ] Error 2
The .config file is a merged configuration.Please remove it by hand before creating your own.
You can use one of the files arch/i386defconfig.* as a template .
I have no idea what this means .
EDIT : I think i know why now , i have to do the YastOnlineUpdate and get the patches , thats the only other thing that i done the last times and it went fine there

Re:I think you need the kernel sources. And despite the README in the driver sources, people usually put them in /usr/src, and symlink /usr/src/linux to the driver src directory (/usr/src/linux-KERNEL_VERSION).
