Using Gentoo GNU/Linux 2004.0, with linux kernel
version 2.4.24, I have compiled (using emerge the gentoo package system) the
latest nvidia modules. The module can be inserted into the running kernel with
no errors, but trying to launch X results in a few seconds of blank screen and
the following messages in the XFree86.0.log

Is there any information here that can suggest why the nvidia module is loaded and then unloaded? X works fine without 3d acceleration using the nv driver.
