[Bug 576648] Re: package nvidia-* failed to install/upgrade: nvidia-* kernel module failed to build (Unable to determine the target kernel version.)
This is caused by a failure to detect the kernel version by the
'conftest.sh' script, which attempts to compile an incomplete kernel
module.
There are a variety of issues causing the failure. I've current
addressed the one that affects builds for 2.6.39 and later (compiler
should use optimisations else static variables are compiled out), and a
related problem where the nv-linux.h preprocessor directives won't
recognise v3.x kernels (tests only for < 2.7.0).
I have working patches for both nvidia-173 and nvidia-current right now,
and have updated the packages locally. I'll upload debdiffs once I've
been able to test the built modules.
