There's a file /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia, which normally reads options nvidia NVreg_DeviceFileUID=0 NVreg_DeviceFileGID=33 NVreg_DeviceFileMode=0660 AFAIR changing this to 0666 still works on 10.2 and factory. > To give me the permissions I would like these device nodes created > with upon bootup (again this is all under the assumption that udev is > doing something).

The kernel module is loaded by the driver. It used to be the other way round (kernel module is loaded when the device file is accessed).
