emerge -pv media-video/nvidia-kernel media-video/nvidia-glx These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild R ] media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.7676-r1 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.7676-r2 -dlloader 0 kB also I'm sticky with kernel <= 2.6.15-rc1-mm1 , another thing you can look at is kernel loaded modules, # lsmod | grep nv nvidia 3707400 12 should output exactly that not other video related modules (groan every time I see that 3707400 that become 4... with 8174 ....) nothing definitive but may be something to try -- Francesco R. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
