1 Answer is simple:
2
3 You have upgrade your kernel (gentoo-sources perhaps) with the use symlinks.
4
5 Here the error :
6
7 echo " ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid."; \
8 echo " include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf
9 are missing."; \
10 echo " Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to
11 fix it."; \
12
13 so, do this :
14
15 cd /usr/src/linux
16 cp ../linux-`uname -r`/.config .
17 make oldconfig
18 make
19 make modules_install install
20
21 Now you can emerge nvidia and reboot when success
22
23 you will boot on new kernel with nvidia module installed
