I've upgraded to the new kernel. Then I set the run level to 3 to run the nvidia scripts to build a custom-run package (use the alternate instructions found at artoo). Everything appears to install just fine. I make sure load "dri" is commented out of /etc/X11/XF86Config and I double-check that the driver is "nvidia" and not "nv".
I type startx at the prompt and the nvidia splash screen comes up, and I'm in gnome working right along using the new driver. So I reset the run level to 5 and reboot. While X starts just fine, I don't see the nvidia splash screen and none of the GL packages work.
What's the problem here?
The current nvidia driver runs fine with the new kernel, as long as I don't use run level 5.

I've got some additional information that may be helpful. During the boot, the following message appears:
nvidia.o module for 2.4.22-1.2179.nptl not found Disabling nvidia driver
That certainly explains what's going on, but how do I solve it?
Thanks, Clint
