woohoo!
what kind of problems can i run into? i ask this because i ain’t got any problems with kernel 2.6.10 and the nvidia drivers (i alredy did some doom3 testing), and im going to go a to little lan party on wednesday, i want to do some linux advertising there ;-) and crashes or freezes would be contraproductive…
which configurations cause problems?

I haven’t noticed any problems either. Works fine with my 5900xt, it must be specific to strange configurations.

It’s not just NVidia. The ATI drivers compile, but fail to insmod with 2.4.10

Have 2.6.10 vanilla kernel, compiled today with my gentoo system. Works as well as before.
