43 I went back and looked at the nvidia driver guide on gentoo.org. There
44 is no mention of nvidia needing that. Should I tell the doc team so
45 they can mention that for others or is my machine a little unique?
46 Since someone else ran into it on the link you posted, it may be
47 something that at least needs a mention even tho it is not nvidia specific.

49 Thoughts?

51 I like this thing. The rig is super fast and the monitor is really
52 nice. These bad eyes can read this better.

54 Thanks.
