I am not using the gentoo kernel sources... Hi Meino, I think it should be the same. I don't use genkernel or anything, but I do use gentoo-sources. I manually make menuconfig, make install, make modules_install. I believe that as long as /usr/src/linux symlinnk is pointing at your new kernel, emerging modules should use that one. Like I showed in my example, I do everything before reboot, and when I reboot it all works with the new kernel, including nvidia-drivers. Thanks, Paul
