My first kernel, emerge prechecks warned that it wasn't and might or might not work. So, I went back to a version that it claims is supported. I have to say tho, the nvidia site wasn't very helpful. The messages when emerging nvidia-drivers was a lot more help. That said, it does load the drivers. They are listed with lsmod. Given the kernel is on my main rig, it's harder to test since I don't reboot often. At some point, I may start a thread about it if a update or something doesn't fix it. After all, current kernel is working just fine. I just thought it worthwhile to follow this problem since it might help or give clues on things to look into. Might be related, might not. Dale :-) :-)
