Greetings;

I got around to building the 2.6.23-rc1 tree, updated to yesterday with git
from the linus tree. The build was fairly clean, but when I rebooted to it,
the latest nvidia installer fails, with these messages:

Is this a known problem? Do I need to report it to nvidia somehow? It looks
to me like it may be their problem, and I have submitted it, but if anyone
has a better idea, please advise. System is FC6, uptodate as of yesterday.

Thanks all.
