[SOLVED] Nvidia and kernel upgrade to 2.6.23-gentoo-r8

[anjgentoo]

After upgrading my kernel to 2.6.23-gentoo-r8, my graphic interface would not start.

The error message in xorg log was related to i2c_del_adapter and i2c_add_adapter.

I discovered that the i2c option was set as an external module in the kernel configuration, and not loaded because I did not need i2c until now, and switched that to a kernel module, then recompiled, moved the new bzImage to /boot, run lilo, re-emerge nvidia-drivers and OK.

Morale : the latest nvidia-driver request i2c support, which was not the case before ...
