Is this the answer to my own question?....
cd /usr/src 
ln -s linux-2.6.0/ linux

or similar?

Nick, I found this in the Gentoo Forums....

Symlinks: Symlinks are necessary for both 2.4 and 2.6 kernels. Create two
symlinks for the 2.6 kernel that you will use: (1) /usr/src/linux and (2)
/usr/src/linux-beta. These symlinks are sometimes depended upon by certain
packages/ebuilds to determine which kernel to compile against such as
nvidia-kernel/glx. The symlinks are basically used as a systemwide
indication of which kernel sources are currently in use so are recommended.

My question is; Did you have to create the symlinks? (Also for a dummy like
me, if you did, how?)

emerged the source, went through and chose what config options to
include (that was the hardest part, may need tweaking), make, make
modules_install, copy the kernel to /boot, reboot, emerge nividia-dev
and nvidia-kernel, every damn thing seems to be working. networking must
be or i couldn't send this! sound is working (alsa now included in the
kernel source - sweet).

Is 80-100 fps in tuxracer on an athlon 1133 with a GeForce2 MX/MX 400
ok?

There must be something wrong with this Torvalds guy, doesn't he know .0
releases aren't supposed to work?
