Good evening.
I can't activate 3d's accelation.
My config:
- xorg.conf : driver "nvidia" (sachant que j'ai une Geforce 2 Mx)
# module "dri"
- /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 : nvidia
- opengl-update nvidia

lsmod:
Module Size Used by
nvidia 2074888 0
snd_via82xx 23684 4

emerge -s nvidia-glx:
Latest version available: 1.0.5336-r2

emerge -s nvidia-kernel:
Latest version available: 1.0.5336-r4

/usr/src/linux/.config:
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OFFBOARD is not set
# CONFIG_FB is not set
#CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y

sorry for not giving you .log but my Pc is crash with this configuration which would be the good.

Xorg -configure find correctly my Geforce but X -config /root/xorg.conf.new freeze my system.
I don't know anymore how to make.

What exactly is the problem, X won't work or framebuffer won't work?
My latest nvidia module is v. 106110 - did you emerge sync? Wich kernel are you using?
I have a working computer with a Geforce 2 MX400 graphical card so that should not be a problem. Generally, yust use these steps:

1) configure & compile your kernel
2) reboot & re-emerge nvidia-kerne
3) modprobe nvidia (and add to autoload like you did)
4) start x (login manager: /etc/init.d/xdm restart)
