Hi All,
I have a fresh gentoo install and it works fine with 4.9 kernel,
nvidia video card does its job like a charm. However, I compiled a
4.15.3 kernel with the same setup, xorg-drivers recompiled,
nvidia-drivers recompiled, eselect kernel set shows to the new kernel
and I have strange behavior:
During boot I see a message which says nvidia.ko cannot be loaded due
to some signature issue. Checking the dmesg under windows I cannot see
this error message.
After successful boot obviously xdm do not start, but the whole screen
vibrates/blinking fast.
I haven't boot from live-cd and chroot and recompile xorg-drivers and
nvidia-drivers yet.
I saw a few article about that this might be due to Spectre/Meltdown,
but I'm not skilled in kernel things.
Any suggestion what I can do?
Thanks any help in advance!
in dmesg I see only this:
