1 Hi!
2
3 After upgrading the system and hence switching to kernel 2.6.13 and udev, my
4 nvidia device nodes are no longer available and I did not find any way to
5 create them automatically by udev.
6
7 According to http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/udev-guide.xml, I have
8 * nvidia listed in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6, and verified that it
9 is loaded.
10 * media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.6629-r4 is installed
11 * sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.13-r1 is installed
12
13 Additionally, I installed the coldplug package.
14
15 grep nvidia /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules
16 KERNEL=="nvidia*", NAME="%k", GROUP="video"
17
18 Why is there no /dev/nvidia[0-7] and nvidiactl ?
19 What did I forget?

21 Thanks for suggestions and greetings
