Hello, I've been running gentoo fine for about 7 months now. about a week ago I did: emerge -u world at which time KDE started acting up. I use KMail so I decided to switch to Mozilla mail becuase I didn't want to be tied to KDE in my plans to switch to fluxbox. Then, the next time I booted, X didn't start - NVDriver did not load. I had noticed that when I last emerged that the name of the module switched to nvidia, so I insmod nvidia, then started kdm, then everything worked ok. However, when I insmod nvidia - it starts with errors and says it will cause problems to the kernel. And now to the problem. Mozilla doesn't save it's profile. I've had to set up my mail twice. I'm sorry this email is so vague, but I really don't know where the problem is so let me list some:
1. I added nvidia to modules.autoload, however it fails to load upon startup 2. When I insmod nvidia, it starts with errors. 3. Mozilla's profile is deleting on me (I'm assuming since my customization is gone and my mail and mail accounts are gone) 4. My computer has frozen twice in the last week.
Thanks so much to anyone who committed to reading this long winded cry for help, Ben Anderson
