I don't really know, not even if those would be important to me. But I
kind of trust into the work of the Gentoo-guys and believe the
gentoo-sources are tested more intensive than vanilla sources (that's
just hearsay).

I told you before: any other version (other than 6629) didn't compile or
load. And one of the 7something was seriously unstable.
So, I would have to go back to 6629. This one just needs a bit of

is there any reason not to try drver version 8756?
6629 is very old. very, very old. Even older. It is old.
As I said, all other available versions in portage didn't compile or

Hi,
I'm having a problem using nvidia-kernel-1.0.6629-r5 after the my recent
kernel-update from gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r1 to gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r3.
The few things, that are compiled when emerging nvidia-kernel, compile
successfully but emerge complains about missing symboles
