I also have 2.6.12-r6, and am building nvidia after the kernel. I have |
| 2 |
kde packages installing right now, so I'll try a different version |
| 3 |
tomorrow. Interesting though...I just did emerge -p nvidia-kernel and |
| 4 |
it said the version that would be installed is |
| 5 |
nvidia-kernel-1.0.6629-r4. How did you end up with version 1.0.7667? |
