NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6111

[eric tanguy]

I try to install NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6111-pkg1 all is fine except at the
end and the module can't be loaded.
When i run rpm -qa | grep kernel, i obtain :
kernel-sourcecode-2.6.8-1.521
kernel-utils-2.4-9.1.131
kernel-2.6.8-1.521
so the sourcecode is installed and correspond to the running kernel.
Here is the /var/log/nvidia-installer.log :

-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would
you li
ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel f
rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? (Answer: Yes)
-> No matching precompiled kernel interface was found on the NVIDIA ftp site;
this means that the installer will need to compile a kernel interface for
your kernel.

The rivafb driver conflicts with the NVIDIA driver; the

ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'. This is most likely
because the kernel module was built using the wrong kernel source files.
Please make sure you have installed the kernel source files for your
kernel; on Red Hat Linux systems, for example, be sure you have the
'kernel-source' rpm installed. If you know the correct kernel source
files are installed, you may specify the kernel source path with the
'--kernel-source-path' commandline option.

on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux
