So'm I. Ever since I upgraded nvidia-drivers to 260-19-29 I've had to recompile it every time I boot the system. This is weird. When I start the system, instead of the kdm login screen I get a blinking cursor in the top-right of a blank screen. An emerge of nvidia-drivers enables me to restart kdm and get a proper screen. This is in spite of not having been able to unload the old nvidia module because it was "in use". Therefore I'm going to mask this version of nvidia-drivers and revert to the previous version.
