[gentoo-user] Getting problems with nVidia and OpenMosix kernel

[Raphael Melo de Oliveira Bastos Sales <raphael.melo21@gmail.com>]

Hi there,

    I got a Gentoo box with two kernels, one is linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r9
kernel sources and the other linux-2.4.30-openmosix-r3. On the 2.6
kernel, the nvidia driver works fine. But on the OpenMosix version,
whenever I try to start X, it crashes, and in the log, there are no
error messages.
    All I get is:
(II) Initializing extension GLX

   *** If unresolved symbols were reported above, they might not
   *** be the reason for the server aborting.

Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11.  Server aborting

    cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE returns nothing.

    I believe it is a flaw in the agpgart module, because if I try to
load the module, I get:
/lib/modules/2.4.30-om-migshm/kernel/drivers/char/agp/agpgart.o:
init_module: Invalid argument
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
      You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.30-om-migshm/kernel/drivers/char/agp/agpgart.o:
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.30-om-migshm/kernel/drivers/char/agp/agpgart.o
failed
/lib/modules/2.4.30-om-migshm/kernel/drivers/char/agp/agpgart.o:
insmod agpgart failed

    Anyone knows how to fix this? Thank you for your attention,

Raphael
