Please attach the Xorg.*.log to this bug report.
Created attachment 154717 [details] The Xorg.0.log file Here's my Xorg.0.log file when I have the 173.14.05 drivers. I've reemerged the 169.12 to use Xorg and it's fine.
Things fall down just as GLX is loaded. Please use eselect opengl to switch away from nvidia to xorg-x11 and back again. This makes sure that the correct symlinks are in place. I would like to see your X config as well.
This may be related with ACPI not being configured as nvidia expects it.
(In reply to comment #4) > This may be related with ACPI not being configured as nvidia expects it. Generally that will result in the performance level being stuck on battery (this only affects PowerMizer) and an inability to notice brightness hotkeys or the display switch request. It should not keep the driver from starting up (I've had this myself when I thought I had no legacy /proc/acpi requirements on my system)
I had the same problem as Julien and the same resolution. I don't have any ACPI in my kernel or on my system as I don't need it. Why should ACPI be required for nvidia-drivers? Is this a requirement for all future releases?
Created attachment 155133 [details] My Xorg.conf Here's my Xorg.conf as requested. And don't think it's with ACPI that the problem comes because I never activated it. I don't need it.

And that should make no difference :) For you all who the new nvidia drivers arn't working for, you should post your kernel configuration. Perhaps that will shed light on this problem.
Looking more at this, I realized that I'm running xorg-server-1.3.0 while you both are at xorg-server-1.4.0. Would you be willing to revert back to an earlier xorg and see if this fixes the problem?
Sorry Harrison, X is a huge package and I'd rather not :/ The 173.08 drivers work fine for me and, while a bug, isn't terribly troublesome. Thanks for being so willing to look into it though!
Problem persists with xorg-server-1.4.2.

I'm seeing some similarity with bug #215645 (not enough to close it as a duplicate). Do you notice anything in common in his emerge --info?
Nothing in his emerge --info is terribly similar to mine, but we're both running GeForce 6-series cards: his is a GeForce 6600 (NV43) and mine is a GeForce 6200 (NV44) which has the same 6600 architecture but fewer pipelines. Both ours are AGP 8x. This package compiles against glibc-2.8-p20080602 (the other bug uses a much older version) just fine. I used the glibc-omitfp USE flag; not sure if that's relevant or not.

(In reply to comment #17) > 173.14.09 is out : http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=114873 Good catch Ludovic, the upstream forum post would suggest that this bug hit others and has now been fixed. I have thanked you in the ebuild changelog :)
