Bug Description
When I booted my machine this morning GDM wouldn't start. I found out that X.org
wouldn't start because the module "nvidia" wasn't loaded. I tried to load it
manully with modprobe:
-------
je@rivendell:~$ sudo modprobe nvidia
FATAL: Error inserting nvidia
(/lib/modules/
-------
In dmesg I find the following:
nvidia: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
I can force the module to be insterted and everything works like before, but I
souldn't be like that:
-------
je@rivendell:~$ sudo modprobe -f nvidia
-------
I think this happend after an update yesterday (11 march 2005) where I remember
that I updated my kernel (linux-image) and restricted modules.
