Hi,
i just intalled ubuntu 10.04 in 64bits.I have a GeForce260 card and i am trying to install the Nvidia driver 195.36.24, however when i try to run the .run file i get the error:
“ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module ‘nvidia.ko’. This is going on most quickly when this kernel module was made against the incorrect or the kernel sources that is configured in a improper manner, with a version of gcc that differs from the one used to build the target kernel, or if a driver like rivafb/nvidiafb is present and restrict the NVIDIA kernel module from getting ownership of the NVIDIA graphics device(s), or NVIDIA GPU installed in this machine is not compatible with this NVIDIA Linux graphics driver release.”
however i already tried using gcc 4.4 and gcc 4.3.
I also tried to install the 195.36.15 driver but i get the same result.
I have no driver installed and i can not proceed to install cuda 3.0.
should i install another driver and cuda 2.3? i really dont know what to do.
can anybody help me out?
thanks in advence,
C.
libglu1-mesa is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
linux-headers-2.6.32-21-generic linux-headers-2.6.32-21
Use ‘apt-get autoremove’ to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
so i tried to make and i got the same error as before (cant find lGLU)
so then i tried:
sudo ln -s/usr/lib/llibGLU.so1 /usr/lib/libGLU.so
but i cant manage to make the SDK samples…
do you have any ideas, it seems like something is not working properly with the Driver, i can not acces the Nvidia Window from the system preferences menu either. i really dont know what to do next
please help
cheers.

On a 64 bit system, the compiler should be linking against libGLEW_x86_64.a instead of libGLEW.a
Are you sure you didn’t modify the common.mk file so that it compiles/links in 32 bit mode? Maybe added an -m32 switch?
edit: if you’re not using the common.mk file to build your own programs, I would advise you to do so. It’ll save you a lot of trouble once set up correctly.

Can you post the output of the make command?
Make sure you add
verbose := 1
to the top of the file C/common/common.mk so that I can see what’s going on
ps. Did you set /usr/local/cuda/lib64 in ld.so.conf.d?

I edited my previous post a little late.
Can you add
verbose :=1
to the top of the file C/common/common.mk and post the output of the make command again?
Also, can you post the output of the following command:
file /usr/lib/libGLU.*
To add the library path for the toolkit, create a file called cuda.conf in /etc/ld.so.conf.d with the following content
/usr/local/cuda/lib64
