[Xen-users] about module nVidia GeForce 8400 G in Xen

Hi everyone,

If there any modules (drivers) for Video Graphic Accelerated Card nVIDIA
GeForce 8400 G in Xen?
Cause the driver that I downloaded from nvidia.com won´t work with Xen
Kernel.
Any Idea?

I use CentOS 5.1

I appreciate your helps very much
thank you
Eric Jansen

take a look at:

http://en.opensuse.org/Use_Nvidia_driver_with_Xen
http://en.opensuse.org/Talk:Use_Nvidia_driver_with_Xen

(the archive with the old drivers is here:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-9631.html
)

Re: [Xen-users] about module nVidia GeForce 8400 G in Xen

Thank you for the quick reply,
But does it work with the newest nvidia driver
(NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09.pkg1.run) or just with the driver that shown in
it (NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9631-pkg1.run)?
I have installed the newest driver in the base kernel, I am afraid of the
kernel panic with the xen kernel
Cause it seems that the newest driver must have a major modification since
in which the driver mentioned that worked with xen kernel.

Thank you very much once again
ERic Jansen

It will work with the newest driver without any modifications.  Just set the
environment variable.

Which environment variable? The one on the make line?:

CC="gcc -DNV_VMAP_4_PRESENT -DNV_SIGNAL_STRUCT_RLIM"

You talk about

export IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE=1

right?

I have downloaded drivers from the page:

http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_173.14.09.html

and have tried to install it with the variable 
IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE set to 1.



export IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE=1
sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09-pkg1.run  --x-module-path=/usr/lib/xorg/modules/


I have got the same error message
"Xen was detected; I don''t want to continue"
or something like this.


Have you installed NVidia drivers in this way?
What is the kernel version on the system where you have installed
it?
May it be due to my kernel is too old?
$ uname -a
Linux cholpon 2.6.18-4-xen-686 #1 SMP Thu May 10 03:24:35 UTC 2007
i686 GNU/Linux


Any other ideas?

Thank you in advance.

Re: [Xen-users] about module nVidia GeForce 8400 G in Xen

Can you try to compile the modules directly from source after exporting the
environment variable? The steps shall be:

1) Install "user" portion of the package under a normal kernel
2) switch to xen kernel, make sure the kernel headers or source is in place
3) extract the nvidia driver package using appropriate command line option
4) compile the nvidia kernel module from source with the
IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE=1 env variable present.
5) Install module, depmod and reboot

Thank you very much for this guidelines.
I have tried to build the module
under a normal kernel, 
but installer complains about the same error
(that the kernel is xenified). 

But it is not.
I read in other lists
that this problem is exists
for the kernels 2.6.24 and newer but I didn''t
find any working solution.

Perhaps running sh causes it to not to see the environment variable.  Do all
of this in one bash shell. It should also pick up automatically on where the
xorg lib modules are.

Thanks, I did like you advised and it helped
(also I used sudo before, and at this time,
I have switched to root by su; may be it
was the problem).

Thank you.

But I have faced new problem.
When I run ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09-pkg1.run
and it wants to build a module, 
it fails with an error:

-----------------------------------------------------------
cat /var/log/nvidia-installer.log

find suggestions
       on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux
       driver download page at www.nvidia.com.
-----------------------------------------------------------

I have googled the error, and found that there is a bug 
in Debian [http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=481485]
(and I use Debian), which causes the error.

There are several workarounds in the discussion of the bugs. 
but I have not tried them yet.

kernel source is from the 3.1 RPMS and its called:

I switched back to 2.6.18 
and module was build without any problems.
All works as it should.

Thank you, guys!

The rpm for the kernel source is xen-3.1.0-1.src.rpm from xen.org.  You need
to install the xen 3.1 rpms and then install the xen 3.2 rpms.  I am using
Centos 5.1.

http://xen.org/download/dl_31rhel4.html
http://xen.org/download/dl_32rhel5.html

It would be best to create a rpmbuild environment for a non root user.
Thats what I have.  There are various howto''s on the net regarding
this.

Re: [Xen-users] about module nVidia GeForce 8400 G in Xen

I have installed latest nvidia drivers on xen using Debian, Ubuntu and
Centos distributions.
Yesterday I''ve installed the 173.14.09 driver on Centos 5.2 x86_64.
The same driver works (better) also on Centos 5.1 i386.

You should install the kernel headers (kernel-xen-headers) and create
an ''include2'' directory under the kernel headers tree.
Then you have to create a symbolic link to ../include/asm from that
new directory. So you will have:
- kernel_headers_dir/include/asm
- kernel_headers_dir/include2/asm

This makes the nvidia build scripts recognize the right assembly
includes (in the nvidia makefile there is a -Iinclude2/asm/mach-xen,
this is how I got this fix).

The driver works well but unfortunately I got no text consoles anymore
on amd64/x86_64 (X works fine, without issues). On i386 the driver
fully works.

I hope that this will help you, bye,
Emilio

Re: [Xen-users] about module nVidia GeForce 8400 G in Xen

Even if the driver worked, I used to get a lot of messages in syslog. I
don't know if it's still the case.

I guess you've installed it on 2.6.18 right?

Re: [Xen-users] about module nVidia GeForce 8400 G in Xen

Yes.. I use CentOS 5.1 2.6.18.1.21
I tried the Christoper´s way :
# export IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE=1
# chmod a+x NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09-pkg1.run
# ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.09-pkg1.run

It works in 2.6.18.1.21 (with init 3) but it doesn´t work in
2.6.18.1.21el5.xen!!
I can´t get into x11 GUI

Is 2.6.18.1.21.el5.xen not kernel 3.1? Should I change to xen 3.1 so it will
work?

Are they Any ideas?

This is my kernel version:

2.6.18-xen_3.1.0

Its from the xen 3.1 rpms at xen.org.  I haven''t tried with the xen
kernel
from centos repositories.  I figured they are tied in with the older xen
3.0.  Plus, I had pciback hiding problems  with the centos xen kernel plus
xen 3.0.
