9 Any other changes with things that could possibly influence the building
10 of the drivers, like X libraries and such?

12 I'd save the current module (/lib/modues/2.6.23-gentoo-r9/somewehere
13 there/nvidia.ko, maybe quickpkg will also work), re-build the drivers for
14 that kernel and check if it still unaffected. If so, you could try the
15 other kernels between those revisions, or vanilla-sources, and narrow
16 down the cause.

18 Good luck, that's a nasty problem you have.
