    Cool,:-) are you aware that the nvidia kernel module needs to be 
reinstall every time a new linux kernel or current kernel is compiled?

     code:*Important: * Every time you compile a new kernel 
<http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kernel-upgrade.xml> or recompile the 
current one, you will need to reinstall the nVidia kernel modules. An 
easy way to keep track of modules installed by ebuilds (such as 
nvidia-drivers) is to install sys-kernel/module-rebuild. Once you've 
installed it, simply run module-rebuild populate to populate its 
database with a list of packages to be rebuilt. Once you've finished 
compiling or recompiling a kernel, just run module-rebuild rebuild to 
rebuild the drivers for your new kernel./code
