Hi,
I have an asus amd64 PC with a nvidia GeForce 8800 GT graphic card. This
PC is working fine with the gentoo-kernel and the nvidia proprietary
kernel module.
I want to experiment with the rt-kernel. It is 3 modules for the
nvidia card.
- The nvidia proprietary module, I guess that this is not necessarily a
good choice because it will not be patched for use with the rt-kernel.
But I am not sure.
- The 2 others are with the kernel, nv and nouveau.
Which module will be best to use with the rt-kernel?
Ciao,
Dominique
nv only!
You can try nvidia, after faking the license for the kernel-rt by
sed -i \
's/EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(migrate_enable);/EXPORT_SYMBOL(migrate_enable);/'
\
kernel/sched.c
sed -i \
's/EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(migrate_disable);/EXPORT_SYMBOL(migrate_disable);/' \
kernel/sched.c
sed -i \
's/EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(__rt_mutex_init);/EXPORT_SYMBOL(__rt_mutex_init);/' \
kernel/rtmutex.c
I mean nv or nvidia only, never use nouveau. I wonder if nouveau should
work.
