Well Jason, I loaded the latest ubuntu generic kernel 2.6.27.9-generic with hope I could compile nvidia driver and then use with the custom kernel... Nvidia driver compiles fine, but when I started with custom kernel, this one didn't recognize driver and raised some troubles, so it seems I will need to compile by myself the entire kernel as you did.
I suppose there is no enough to have linux headers, I suppose i need to have custom kernel source and configured by myself.
So i'll apreciate if you tell me how can i compile my own kernel and install on my own so this #$% damn driver can set it up correctly.
meanwhile, I was reading your initial post about to install 74xxx module against compile entire kernel.
well i found this post in the internet and I think you will understan better than me as I can see you know further about linux than I can do
