I successfully configured, compiled & installed Kernel 4.9.0 (testing)
& compiled Nvidia 375.26 (testing) to match ;
there was a problem trying to use 4.9.0 with 361.28 (below).
After reboot, X started, but with a primitive display (overlarge chars etc).
I tried it with KDE 5 & with Fluxbox, but no difference :
KDE couldn't start Plasma, but showed a few apps.
There was a warning msg re Opengl, but nothing helpful.

Previously & now again, everything is ok with Kernel 4.2.0-r1 + Nvidia 361.28.

There are many kernel versions available & many Nvidia versions ;
there are also many USE flags & many kernel options.
Before I try permutating them all (smile), has anyone else had trouble here ?
