 |

First off whenever i would ftp to my windows box to get mp3s to my lnew gentoo machine my system would lag horribly every couple of songs. I ended up figuring out i didnt have dma enabled.
To enable DMA i had to add the AMD and nVidia IDE support for my kernel. I also noticed i still had the Pentium-4 for my cpu type and i switch that over to athlon. After doing so i cp image over, reboot and now my nvidia drivers wont load on boot and it gave me this error when compiling the kernel using make && make modules_install.

any ideas why enabling the AMD and nVidia support under IDE or changing the proc family to athlon would cause my nvidia modules to not load.
My system runs a ton better now with the new changes but have no clue why my nidia drivers wont load now |

Did you recompile the modules? Whnever you change the kernel in any way you should, and in most case need to, recompile the drivers.
Do a re-emerge of the driver packages |
