I emerged gentoo-sources-3.2.0-r1. After reboot I emerged nvidia-drivers. when I start startx the screen turns black, and the keyboard doesn't respond. I even upgraded my xorg-server to 1.11.3 but the problem still occurs. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge gentoo-sources-3.2.0-r1 2.genkernel all 3.emerge nvidia-drivers Actual Results: xorg-server freezes.

I added acpi=off into the kernel and xorg started successfully. But I can't suspend my system, which makes sense since acpi=off
I have a ga-990fxa-ud3 rev1 motherboard. I changed the iommy support to disabled, and after that xorg server starts without problems.
It's not fixed, only worked around
Same problem here on Mac Pro, including kernel 3.2.1. Disabling INTEL_IOMMU_DEFAULT_ON helped (didn't try the kernel cmdline).
I am also experiencing this. GTX570 kernel 3.2.1 iommu compiled in intel_iommu=on nvidia driver version 275 or 290 Upon startx, the nvidia module fails to load. However in my case the xserver fails gracefully and i'm left back at the console. [ 202.310] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA GPU at PCI:3:0:0. [ 202.310] (EE) NVIDIA(0): check your system's kernel log for additional e [ 202.310] (EE) NVIDIA(0): messages and refer to Chapter 8: Common Problem [ 202.310] (EE) NVIDIA(0): README for additional information. [ 202.310] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device! I can get any more trace information if you require it. If I keep the above the same and change intel_iommu to off, X at least will start and normally. Except: When I suspend, upon resume the system is completely dead in the water. alt+sysrq / ssh do not work. I am also seeing that same problem regardless of kernel version or settings using v295 of the driver. With v270, 3.1.6, no iommu present, everything works. So perhaps those two different problems are somehow related and a clue to a common root cause.
Intel and kernel upstream has said its a bug in Intel's code. Try disabling VTd in your BIOS if you have the option for it and things should improve. Otherwise you'll need to wait until Intel fixes GEM/DRM (their graphics stack).
As I noted in the previous comment, this was a bug with the kernel and Intel's own open source bits in the kernel. Kind of humorous given Linus' antics this weekend regarding NVIDIA.
