Hi Norbert,
I've almost the same compiling error using 0.9np8pre1 on the official
Ubuntu Natty kernel (2.6.38-8).  Actually I have a patched BIOS so I'm
stick on the Intel card of my Z21MN/B. Everything work on Ubuntu Natty
(microphone included) except for the brightness and eject keys. I've
never used the nvidia card...
