Re: [gentoo-amd64] nvidia-kernel compile problem

[Mickaël Bucas]

On http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_1.0-7676.html you will
find the latest version (7676).

That's the one I use, it works for me, but I installed it manually (i.e. no
emerge)
And I don't use Gentoo Kernel either...

I also had problems with 32 bit compatibility libraries, they overwrite 64
bit libs and prevent display from working. Try to not install them.
