Indeed, the comments in the bug report from b.g.o could've explained it. I had RC_DEVICE_TARBALL="yes". And from the comments, a few ways to possibly fix the problem: a) set RC_DEVICE_TARBALL="yes", then run /sbin/NVmakedevices.sh once. or b) add <code> if [ ! -e /dev/nvidia0 ]; then /sbin/NVmakedevices.sh fi </code> to your /etc/conf.d/local.start -- Joe -- There are 3 kinds of people in the world: Those who can count, and those who can't.
