After updating my system as per the UPDATING file, I now find that the Nvidia driver no longer works with Xorg. =46rom the Xorg.0.log file (EE) Aug 26 14:46:20 NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module. Please see the (EE) Aug 26 14:46:20 NVIDIA(0): system's kernel log for additional error messages and (EE) Aug 26 14:46:20 NVIDIA(0): consult the NVIDIA README for details. (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting *** (II) UnloadModule: "nvidia" (II) UnloadModule: "wfb" (II) UnloadModule: "fb" (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. When starting "X", I receive a message that the /dev/nvidiactl file/directory is not accessible. I checked and it does not exist. I rebuilt the nvidia-driver-270.41.19 port and rebooted the system; however, the problem still exists. I removed the reference to the driver from the xorg.conf file and now "X" starts. Has anyone else experienced this problem after updating the devel/libnotify and net/libproxy files. That is the only major thing I have updated recently so I assume it has to be connected to that somehow. --=20 Carmel =E2=9C=8C carmel_ny@hotmail.com Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
