Certainly I did ln-s/usr/src/linux-2.6.9 /usr/src/linux ** emerge nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel ** env-update ** opengl-update nvidia ** modprobe nvidia
The same Result

1) is nvidia.ko in /lib/modules/2.6.9/video ?
2) if it is there, what "depmod -a" say?

Ok.
| Code: |
# grep nvidia /lib/modules/2.6.9-rc4-nitro1/modules.dep
/lib/modules/2.6.9-rc4-nitro1/video/nvidia.ko:
/lib/modules/2.6.9-rc4-nitro1/kernel/drivers/char/agp/nvidia-agp.ko: /lib/modules/2.6.9-rc4-nitro1/kernel/drivers/char/agp/agpgart.ko
# modprobe -l nvidia
/lib/modules/2.6.9-rc4-nitro1/video/nvidia.ko
|
If any of this differs => you have problems with modprobe configuration. I.e. tries to read config from some other place.

I bet you just have to
| Code: | | emerge nvidia-kernel |
that needs to be done after every kernel update |

Hi, I just wanted to say I have the same problem after updating my system yesterday. When I started the computer today x did not start.
Cannot cut and paste from the other computer but the errors I get is:
| Code: | | (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module! |
If I do a modprobe nvidia I get this:
| Code: | | FATAL: Error inserting nvidia (/lib/modules/2.6.7-gentoo-r8/video/nvidia.ko): Invalid module format |
I have re-emerged nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel and when checking all that has been written in the above posts I get the same results...
So help would be appreciated  |

Many thanks to you for the help!
Everything, like has turned out
The problem was that nitro-sources there are two directories. One nitro1y (only nvidia.ko) and another nitro1 (there all rest) 
antipod
try other sources ?  |

I'm not sure if this has been resolved, but it may have to do with the parameter you passed to the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION parameter in your config.
I'll bet a donut that you typed 'y' for that option during "make oldconfig"... That would set your module path to "/lib/modules/2.6.9-rc4-nitro1y"
When you installed the nvidia module, it installed to "/lib/modules/2.6.9-rc4-nitro1"... which is not your current module path and therefore not found.
Do a make menuconfig, check under General Setup, and remove the 'y' from the "Local Version - append to kernel release" string. Then rerun make && make modules_install, etc etc.
Reboot into your new kernel, remerge the nvidia stuff, and it should work. Then you can rm -rf the typoed /lib/modules/2.6.9-rc4-nitro1y dir.
