where did you get these patches? I have an MX4000

last nvidia driver to support this chipset is v9731, but I can't get it

obsoleted #define SA_..... entries?
And, what is the "migration helpers patch"?
Basically: do you know what I need to do to make the nvidia driver
version that works for MX4000 work?
I use the two attached patches:
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9631-pkg1_IRQF_SHARED.patch against nvidia driver
and
20-rt_EXPORT_SYMBOL.patch against the kernel.
The first removes the SA_ entries and replaces with equivalent #defined
constant.
Where does one get these patches and how does one apply them (the Nvidia is
closed driver .run file which includes compressed sources inside. The rt8
patch is a patch file, not a collection of source.
BTW: I did not run into any pagefault_disable undefined symbols anywhere to my
recollection. As I said, the rt8 patch had no business removing the SA_
defines (Linus has not done this yet!).
