I added nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx to /etc/portage/package.keywords.
Then,
emerge nvidia-kernel
modprobe -a nvidia
emerge nvidia-glx
opengl-update nvidia

Then it worked fine.

Hi

I would like to know how this problem its solved please . I have the same
issue. I am not able to load nvidia at all and now I use the generic NV. I
have the same kernel-2.6.9 but I compile it with Stak of 4k instead of 8K.
Will this affect on something?

Thanks
