You're not running 2.6.14-gentoo-r2. if /usr/src/linux is symlinked to |
14 |
anything but the running kernel, you may experience problems. that's why |
15 |
I always reboot into a new kernel before re-emerging nvidia-kernel, |
16 |
which works fine with 2.6.14-gentoo-r2 here. |

If you don't want the hassle of logging into a console, emerging |
19 |
nvidia-kernel and starting X when booting into a new kernel, put this |
20 |
in /etc/conf.d/local.start, on a single line |
21 |
|
22 |
lsmod | grep --quiet nvidia || (AUTOCLEAN="no" FEATURES="-sandbox" emerge --oneshot nvidia-kernel && modprobe -v nvidia && /etc/init.d/xdm stop zap start) |
