I'm not sure what you mean here. In my make.conf file, I have the line video_cards="nvidia" Are you sure you're handing it a recognized mode > string?

Also, you'll need not just framebuffer, but framebuffer > console support, too. I use genkernel and there is a screen resolution of something that says 1024x768 and I can't edit it. I also don't know what my horizontal and vertical sync are because it's not in my documentation and when I used ddxcinfo-knoppix -hsync, it returns 0 0 and ddcxinfo-knoppix -modlines doesn't have a corresponding mode for my monitor - the resolution is 1920x1200.
