Hello
How should i enable Nouveau driver in a custom kernel. Here is how i
compiled my kernel:
1_make localmodconfig
2_make menuconfig and then went to: device drivers -->  Graphics
support --> Nouveau Support
3_make
4_make modules_install
5_make install

and after booting the kernel i tried loading Nouveau by following commands:

1_insmod drm.ko
2_insmod drm_kms_helper.ko
3_insmod ttm.ko
4_insmod nouveau.ko

but in the last step it gives me Unknown symbol in module

here is the result of "dmesg | tail" after i tried insmod nouvea.ko:

drm: module verification failed: signature and/or  required key

[  212.330197] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810

[  255.336904] nouveau: Unknown symbol mxm_wmi_call_mxmx (err 0)

I don't know in what step i did wrong.

thank you.
