To use the nvidia module, you need to back out the 4k-stack-always-on patch and the move-_module-something-something patch. Then recompile your kernel and reemerge the nvidia module.

*Remember to go into kernel hacking and disable 4k stacks

If you don't unpatch it, then you won't have the choice to disable it. You need to unpatch both of them. they can be found in mm's broken out directory.
