Description Juan Magallon 2014-04-04 14:12:45 CEST 
The legacy nVidia driver 304.119 compiles ok on recent kernels, but
fails to load with an error:

[   57.295776] nvidia: Unknown symbol acpi_os_wait_events_complete (err 0)

It is related to some change in the kernel.
There are some patches around, but it seems to be corrected in a new
version of the driver 304.121.

Can we have an update ?

THX
