How can I find the latest Nvidia driver for Crystalbuntu (hardy)?
Many thanks

PS I know, no sound over HDMI...
generikb Wrote:[quote=Sam.Nazarko]That sounds like it's in order then, which means it's mighty odd /dev/sda is not recognised. Here are some things you could try:
-- a parted LiveCD - obviously to set atvrecov you will need patched parted.
-- rebuild.sh the structure and go from there, you may have messed up the drive structure significantly (although really this shouldn't matter).
-- do it from a different Linux install (atv-bootloader might help out)
so when i do this part:
Code:nano ./install_parted.sh
#Change ./configure --enable-static=yes to ./configure CFLAGS="-fgnu89-inline" --enable-static=yes
sudo ./install_parted.sh
I get this error:
Code:configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
There seems to be no Makefile in this directory.
You must run ./configure before running `make'.
make: *** [all] Error 1
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.
Done
xbmc@atv:~/hfs_support/parted$
any thoughts?
edit note: the file originally just said "./configure --enable-static" without the "=yes", but I tried both ways and same error.

Sounds like there is no Makefile (ls | grep Makefile) to see. If there isn't a makefile, then your script hasn't run right. "/configure CFLAGS="-fgnu89-inline" --enable-static=yes
works fine here and generates the Makefile perfectly. You have the buildtool essentials right?: "sudo /usr/bin/apt-get install build-essential patch"

i did the ls | grep Makefile and nothing happens, it just goes back to the prompt.
when I do the sudo /usr/bin/apt-get install build-essential patch, it says
"sudo: usr/bin/apt-get: command not found.
But I did it just after firing up the ATV and SSHing in...do i need to go to a different folder or something? Where in the steps you gave before do I install this buildtool essentials?
Thanks again, I feel like I'm close to getting this to work!
Sam.Nazarko Wrote:To be quite frank, no, it does not make sense. If it isn't broken do not fix it. If you go down the route of upgrading then you may as well upgrade to Maverick, update ALSA, and update NVIDIA. As far as I am concerned, the current Nvidia drivers provide no issues (unlike later versions), so I would not change this. You could get undesired results (which it sounds like you have).
P.S: Don't double post.

You've missed the / off the front of usr. You would need:
sudo /usr/bin/apt-get install build-essential patch
you ran:
sudo usr/bin/apt-get install build-essential patch
which looks for usr in the folder you are currently in. But usr resides at the root level, hence the error..... and the reason for the / before usr
but if your path is set right, you should be able to run:
sudo apt-get install build-essential patch
and get the desired result anyway. Hope this helps,
Jim

Jimmer Wrote:Sam, this may be a stupid question, but: if I did a dist-upgrade in crystalbuntu, would it leave me with a kernel that won't boot.....
Just wondering if I could do a few cheeky dist-upgrade from 8.04 --> 8.10 --> 9.04 --> 9.10? I know it's possible on regular machines, but will yours (and pin's) mach kernel pass on to the dist-upgraded linux kernel? Or does the mach kernel need to be re-compiled for each dist-upgrade?

Thanks Jim, that's exactly what happened
So I've done the entire process again exactly as laid out on page 145 of this thread. It appears that it runs correctly all the way up to this part:

I'm at wits end here! (not really, I'm enjoying the challenge lol) does anyone have any suggestions?
