[Bug 653910] Re: package nvidia-current 195.36.24-0ubuntu1~10.04 failed to install/upgrade: error: unknown field ‘ioctl’ specified in initializer

 

Hmm, actually I just noticed your report indicates you're running the
2.6.31 kernel?

  kernel: 2.6.31-21-generic
  ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-21.59-generic
  Uname: Linux 2.6.31-21-generic x86_64
  ProcCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-21-generic root=UUID=024cd15d-6210-47a2-a951-7ba1952da34e ro nomodeset quiet splash

Yet 2.6.32 is the standard for Lucid.

I'm also wondering if perhaps the change needs to be fenced in an
#ifdef.  NV_FILE_OPERATIONS_HAS_IOCTL seems not to be valid in this old
version of the driver.

I'm going to punt and leave this one to Alberto who is better aware of
the intricacies of this ioctl issue.  Please follow up with him.
