Check the xorg log. New(er) nvidia-drivers often take a bit of time to |
| 18 |
get upgraded to handle the most recent kernels. There is likely a more |
| 19 |
concrete (if no less helpful) message in the xorg log. You may need to |
| 20 |
stick to an older driver and/or kernel until one of them catches up |
| 21 |
with the other. (I no longer have an nvidia card in my Gentoo box, so |
| 22 |
I have no current specifics, but even when I did, it was legacy 340.xx. |
