Hi,

after I upgraded my system along with my distribution Kernel, X doesn't start with startx anymore

https://gist.githubusercontent.com/functionexpression/ce45755bea50155348c4f6a663cb0f0a/raw

I have the binary nvidia drivers (x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers)

Kernel where X works: linux-6.6.16-gentoo-dist
Kernel where X doesn't work: linux-6.6.21-gentoo-dist

Thank you for the help.

maybe you forgot emerge -va @module-rebuild, because of new kernel.

Important
Every time a kernel is built, it is necessary to reinstall the NVIDIA kernel modules. An easy way to rebuild the modules installed by ebuilds (such as x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers) is to run emerge @module-rebuild.
