Cool,<span class="moz-smiley-s1"><span> :-) </span></span> are
you aware that the nvidia kernel module needs to be reinstall every
time a new linux kernel or current kernel is compiled?<br>
<br>
code:<b> Important: </b>
Every time you <a
href="http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kernel-upgrade.xml">compile a
new kernel</a>
or recompile the current one, you will need to reinstall the nVidia
kernel
modules. An easy way to keep track of modules installed by ebuilds
(such as
<span class="code" dir="ltr">nvidia-drivers</span>) is to install <span
class="code" dir="ltr">sys-kernel/module-rebuild</span>. Once
you've installed it, simply run <span class="code" dir="ltr">module-rebuild
populate</span> to populate its
database with a list of packages to be rebuilt. Once you've finished
compiling
or recompiling a kernel, just run <span class="code" dir="ltr">module-rebuild
rebuild</span> to rebuild the
drivers for your new kernel./code<br>
