Well that makes it a bit special ... and you will have to do a bit of debugging: The directory /usr/src/nvidia-"your nvidia version"/ should have a file conftest.sh
Add set -x early in conftest.sh and below the line select_makefile) change $HOSTCC $CFLAGS -o conftest$$ conftest$$.c > /dev/null 2>&1 to $HOSTCC $CFLAGS -o conftest$$ conftest$$.c Next rerun dkms. You will have a file "make.log" somewhere below /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/"your nvidia version"/"your kernel version" Use that to find out, why conftest.sh fails. -- DKMS couldn't make module for custom kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/502334 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
