or what seems more likely is that gentoo or nvidia has changed something that has screwed older systems, without telling people what they should do to correct the problem. How many people like me did an upgrade, only to find NVdriver no longer autoloads without any information as to why?, and therefore put it in modules.autoload (which after all is its purpose!) On my system, emerge nvidia-kernel builds NVdriver, no nvidia that I can see.
