NVIDIA – Finally, a Kernel 3.13-compatible Driver..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on February 19, 2014 by RGFebruary 19, 2014

Just updated to NVIDIA driver version 331.49, and it installs and runs OK on Kernel 3.13 (3.13.3) without the need for any patches. It can be made to work for Kernel 3.14, by editing the previous 3.13/3.14 combo patch mentioned in a previous article, and removing everything except the nv-linux.h portion of the patch. Robert Gadsdon.  February … Continue reading →

NVIDIA – New Driver – Kernel 3.13 Fail..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on February 8, 2014 by RGFebruary 8, 2014

NVIDIA have just released driver 334.16, but – despite the fact that Kernel 3.13 has been released for some time now – the driver still fails to load correctly, with the same ”Unknown symbol acpi_os_wait_events_complete (err 0)” error.. So, the existing known/good kernel 3.13 patch still applies, except that the section of the patch relating to /uvm/nvidia_uvm_linux.h … Continue reading →

Kernel 3.13 in Linux VMware Guest – Shared Folders Problem

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on January 25, 2014 by RGJanuary 25, 2014

Setting up a test system for the usb/uvcvideo tests, I have found another kernel 3.13 issue – this time with Linux as a VMware guest.. The shared folders – which work OK with 3.12, do not work with 3.13. Normally shared folders are found under /mnt/hgfs, but with 3.13 the hgfs directory is corrupted in some odd … Continue reading →

Back to 3.12.8..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on January 22, 2014 by RGJanuary 22, 2014

After some problems with uvcvideo / usb under 3.13 producing non-working camera and audio, and producing a ‘tombstone’, I have reverted to 3.12.8 for the time being..    More research is needed, and I have set up a 3.13 ‘guest’ under VMware to conduct further tests, without the ‘kernel taint’ of NVIDIA drivers, etc.. [50677.696508] cannot submit urb … Continue reading →

Kernel 3.13 – What’s New?

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on January 20, 2014 by RGJanuary 20, 2014

The Kernel 3.13 mailing list announcement is – as usual – not very detailed, and in any case only shows changes since the last ‘release candidate’ (-rc8):    http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg572887.html For a much more detailed look at new features, etc., there is a very useful summary here: http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_3.13 And..  More specific architecture/driver change information, here: http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_3.13-DriversArch Robert Gadsdon.   January … Continue reading →

3.13 Final – And a VMware Patch You May Not Need..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on January 20, 2014 by RGJanuary 20, 2014

Installed 3.13 Final on my test system, and then on my main system, and encountered an odd problem with VMware (10.0.1).. On my test system, VMware had been compiling and installing/running OK on all the 3.13-rc versions, and 3.13 Final, but on my main system, vmnet failed to compile: … /tmp/modconfig-I1rVjt/vmnet-only/filter.c:206:1: error: conflicting types for ‘VNetFilterHookFn’  VNetFilterHookFn(unsigned … Continue reading →

NVIDIA: New Drivers – Still need Patch for 3.13..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on January 14, 2014 by RGJanuary 14, 2014

NVIDIA have released driver 319.82, and now 331.38, and they install OK on kernel 3.12, but – unfortunately – still need the patch for kernel 3.13, despite the fact that 3.13 Final is due in about a week from now.. modprobe: ERROR: could not insert ‘nvidia’: Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) make[1]: *** [package-install] … Continue reading →

NVIDIA – Run-Time Fix for 3.13..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on November 29, 2013 by RGNovember 29, 2013

Although the latest NVIDIA drivers compile OK on kernel 3.13-rc1, they do not load/run correctly, and may only give low-res output… The same problem exists with the newest version just released – 319.76.. nvidia: Unknown symbol acpi_os_wait_events_complete (err 0) There is a fix available, in this thread from DevZone: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/644906/331-20-on-3-13-rc1-kernel/ – but note the logic correction mentioned … Continue reading →
