I cannot compile nvidia drivers (or kernel & glx) & run them until i switch back to gcc-3.4.6 Saw many bugs related to nvidia that seems closed to that one, but noone said it's a gcc problem yet. What i'm not getting is that i have nvidia-drivers-1.0.8774 working fine with gcc4.1 on my other computer (but kernel is 2.6.17 on that one) gcc-config -l [1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.4 [2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6 * [3] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardened [4] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardenednopie [5] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardenednopiessp [6] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardenednossp [7] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.1 gcc-config 7 * Switching native-compiler to i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.1 ... >>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...

Your kernel is outdated like hell. Also, if you need an ancient card, go test x11-drivers/nvidia-legacy-drivers instead.
