    Greets;

    I just tried to boot 2.6.0-test3, without the advansys driver in the
    kernel, intending to test it, but then recalled that the patches
    applied to the unpacked
    NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2
    src tree, the
    NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-4496-2.5.diff,
    hadn't made it work for test2, so I tried that first.

    This script was executed to build the nvidia install, as per the
    instructions in the patch:
    ------------------
    #!/bin/bash
    cd usr/src/nv
    make
    cd ../../..
    make install
    ------------------
    Which appears to build as expected.

    That still fails during startx, at about the point where the nvidia
    splash screen should be seen, requireing a hardware reset to recover.
    I've saved the XFree86.0.log, so what list do I send it for a
    pathology report and a new prescription/patch?

    Obviously, back on a 2.4.22-rc2 kernel boot. I'll try the advansys
    modprobe next.

    Side comment: When I shutdown x, and then reboot after sending this
    msg, the fact that I've been running a 2.6 kernel will probably be
    confirmed by the shutdown scripts being unable to unmount my /usr on
    /dev/hda8, and this will be the case until such time as I let e2fsk
    scan it, reporting no problems when it does.

    To me, that says there is still something a bit fubar with the ide
    stuffs yet.
