Over the last week, I've installed a Gentoo box on a slow Duron 800 with
an nVidia FX5200. Everythings been going fine except now I'm trying to
get X up and running with the nVidia driver. I've installed the
nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx, all goes fine. I can get kdm to start up
just fine with the driver set to "nv" but when I change it to "nvidia" X
takes up 99% of the processor with no sign of ever giving it back. Just
wondering if anyone has some pointers on what I've done wrong with the
kernel/nvidia configs?
I've been following a couple how-to's (mostly the gentoo handbook) and
this:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Setup_MythTV
And some kernel options here:

I've tried with the agpgart compiled as a module, in the kernel, and not
at all. All have the same result... faik
Ideas? other howtos? I can post or make available my kernel config and
other use variables if needed.

Put your xorg.conf in a pastebin
