i did get that error reported when i done a fresh install of gentoo, i had activated the nvidia frame buffer in the kernel, nvidiafb i believe it's called, if you have selected this go back turn it off remake kernel. Also have you updated both nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx to the same version and that /usr/src/linux points to your current kernel. Hope this helps. _________________ Intel Q6600, Asus P5N32-E SLI, Audigy2 ZS, Gainward 7950 |

Perfect, removing nvidiafb from the kernel did the trick.
Thanks. |
