Okay, I'll try 3.5.5 from the repository and see.

I am going to build 3.8 as well.

[MarkGrieveson]

Thanks rbistolfi.  

I tried 3.5.5, and the nvidia driver works on it, but it doesn't have the ptrace_scope thingy:

Code: [Select]

mark:$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope
cat: /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope: No such file or directory
vector:/~
mark:$ uname -r
3.5.5
vector:/~

Anyway, I look forward to the 3.8 kernel.  Hopefully that will work out.

Rodrigo,

$ modprobe snd_hda_intel worked but $ modprobe snd_usb_audio gives the following error:

vector:/~
johwhi:$ modprobe snd_usb_audio

John, I'm guessing that modprobe would need to be run as root.

Found another article that claims the "hand of thief" thing isn't all that dangerous.  Still, better safe than sorry.

[rbistolfi]

3.8 packages are up at vlcore.

Yep. Its not something to worry a lot about.

Mark, thanks but that didn't help.  Didn't get an error though.

Wow, I didn't mean to start such a long thread.  Apparently this trojan is not currently a threat, but hackers are working to make it a reality.  Sorry if I made it seem worse than it is.

Thanks-

Nah, thanks for bringing this into our atention. The restrictions implemented in these settings look sane to me, would be nice to have them in 7.0 for who wants to use them.

if nvidia  still can't be installed,
do check more

Thanks, I'm going to try this.

Okay, so I was preparing to once again attempt to install kernel 3.10, and then take note of the issues that occurred when trying to install the nvidia driver as instructed to do on the site specified above by vincent2, but I can't find the kernel packages that were specified in this post.  Do these packages no longer exist?  I also can't find the 3.8 packages to try.

[nightflier]

Packages in the untested repository have a fairly short lifespan and have probably been purged.
