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 ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
