Description imbacil 2004-06-05 09:00:04 UTC
Upgraded to baselayout-1.9.4 yesterday. When booting today xorg refused to start due to the following error:

(**) NVIDIA(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32
(==) NVIDIA(0): RGB weight 888
(==) NVIDIA(0): Default visual is TrueColor
(==) NVIDIA(0): Using gamma correction (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
(**) NVIDIA(0): Option "NoLogo" "1"
(--) NVIDIA(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xFA000000
(--) NVIDIA(0): MMIO registers at 0xFD000000
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module!

Re-emerging nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx did not help.

This is what I'm using
media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.5336-r3
media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.5336-r2
x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0
development-sources-2.6.6

Linux angband 2.6.6 #3 Thu May 20 13:43:09 CEST 2004 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine) GenuineIntel GNU/Linux


Solution:
Downgrade to baselayout-1.8.12
