I had the same problem today, with the same kernel. It turns out those missing symbols are because of the kernel version - there's a patch to add in some code so you can recompile, but I recommend upgrading to a newer kernel. (I used love-sources, but don't tell the devs or they may lynch me) You could also use an older version of nvidia-kernel, I believe, but it wouldn't emerge properly for me anymore. Here's the patch, in case you want it: http://r3pek.homelinux.org/sysfs-class_simple-2.6.1.patch After installing your new kernel/patch, recompile nvidia-kernel (5336-r1) and you should be good to go. At least, it worked for me. Tom -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
