Have a look at this guide: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Nouveau/en and this: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Linux_firmware You'll need to add the firmware the video card asks for here: Device Drivers ---> Generic Driver Options ---> Firmware loader ---> -*- Firmware loading facility () Build named firmware blobs into the kernel binary <== In this instance your card NVIDIA GP107 should need '/lib/firmware/nvidia/ gp107', so the respective entry for it in the kernel config ought to be: CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="nvidia/gp107" Someone more clued up on these cards can correct me or add to it. --nextPart1978259.KlZ2vcFHjT Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
