There's a lot missing in the portage version of the driver - it doesn't even (at least last I checked) install nvidia-ml.so unless you're using X. I suspect your weren't getting libnvoptix installed from portage, which was meaning OptiX won't work. I don't really care for the `.run` version of the drivers, and prefer to keep everything as an ebuild. I have my hacked up ebuild at https://github.com/ScottESanDiego/scotterepo/tree/master/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers if you wanted to just steal that (it's largely just the original ebuild, but installing extra "stuff" so that nvidia-smi works headless, nvidia-docker works, etc. ScottE
