Hello,

I build new kernels when they become available. Now I have a problem.
After I install new kernel I have to run NVidia setup script. Starting
from git15 it fails, see attached file. The error line is here:

/tmp/selfgz6622/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-256.35/kernel/nv.c: At top level:
/tmp/selfgz6622/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-256.35/kernel/nv.c:426: error:
unknown field âioctlâ specified in initializer
/tmp/selfgz6622/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-256.35/kernel/nv.c:426: warning:
initialization from incompatible pointer type

In git14 everything was OK, but now it is not, also with the Git synced
kernel. Has something changed from git14 times? I hope that it changed
in Linux because it will be fixed earlier than NVidia source.

The latest driver is here:

ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/256.44/

To unpack execute it with --extract-only option.
