Just to make sure I understand you correctly. You mean: |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
cd /usr/src/linux |
| 30 |
make all && make modules_install |
| 31 |
then cp the kernel to /boot ? |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
That I didn't try. I knew if I updated the kernel I had to re-emerge |
| 34 |
the nvidia-drivers but I didn't know it was the other way around too. |
