I do basically the same thing as you. I run make oldconfig, answer the questions there, run make all && make modules_install and that is it. After that, I can update nvidia's drivers and such and it not complain. I have in the past forgot to change the symlink tho. I used to do it manually but now use eselect to do that. Just for giggles, what does eselect kernel list show as being selected? Maybe something is not quite right there. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
