[ATrpms-devel] nvidia-graphics9625

[Paulo Cavalcanti]

In fact, I do not know where this symbolic links is created.
It just "appears".

nvidia_drv.o -> /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia-1.0-
9625_drv.o

I can create either

nvidia-1.0-9625_drv.o

or

nvidia-1.0-9625_drv.so

But not the symbolic link. I presume it is created in the post install
section.
Since everything in this directory has a .so extension, and nvidia also
changed the name, it would be more elegant to use .so. It works, I tested.
But creating the link manually.

Therefore I kept the old naming, so the rpm works as "is".

I also did no find where the xorg file is changed.

But that's another story. I'll have to look at this later.

But people can use it, if it goes for bleeding.

Thanks, Axel.
