i have got the same problem while installing the nvidia-kernel within portage tree on my 2.6.12-5 kernel.
i solved it by commenting the line ---> Load "glx" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. i recommend downloading the latest driver xxx.run from nvidia.com and compile a module for your kernel. it worked for me, just for your reference. ;-) On Sat, Sep 03, 2005 at 01:42:33AM +0000, Raphael Melo de Oliveira Bastos Sales wrote: > Hi there, > > I got a Gentoo box with two kernels, one is linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r9 > kernel sources and the other linux-2.4.30-openmosix-r3.
