SubjectPROBLEM:Bug when installing NVidia Driver Module
[1.] Bug when installing NVidia Driver Module on "athlon" architecture
[2.] the following error comes up when i attempt to install NVdriver
module from NVidia.

I build the Nvidia driver from the NVIDIA_kernel-0.9-769.tar.gz found at
www.nvidia.com

command insmod /lib/modules/2.4.3/video/NVDriver

reports this error
/lib/modules/2.4.3/video/NVDriver: unresolved symbol _mmx_memcpy

however if i rebuild my kernel using an "i686" architecture this problem
no longer comes up.

It is quite possible that this is NVidia's problem, however it seemed
reasonable that the "athlon" architecture should support MMX.

[7.1.]If some fields are empty or look unusual you may have an old
version.
Compare to the current minimal requirements in Documentation/Changes.
