---- Log message:
added my nvidia device creation solution

---- Page affected: UdevFAQ

---- Diffs:

================================================================
  
  == I'm using nvidia-legacy and the /dev/nvidia* is not created! ==
  
- That's a problem of nvidia (legacy) drivers. udev has nothing to do with it. 
Unfortunately, you must manually create proper device files using `mknod`.
+ That's a problem of nvidia (legacy) drivers. udev has nothing to do with it. 
Unfortunately, you must manually create proper device files using {{{mknod}}}.
+ 
+ You can make {{{modprobe}}} creatte these devices for you every time the 
module is loaded by adding the following line to your ''/etc/modprobe.conf'':
+ 
+ {{{
+ install nvidia /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install nvidia && { mknod /dev/nvidia0 
c 195 0; mknod /dev/nvidia1 c 195 1; mknod /dev/nvidia2 c 195 2; mknod 
/dev/nvidia3 c 195 3; mknod /dev/nvidiactl c 195 255; /bin/true; }
+ }}}
+ 
+ Note that this should be all in one line.
  
  == I have to manually load modules such as psmouse or evdev! Why? ==
