Linux 3.7.6 breaks nvidia systems

I upgraded from testing/linux 3.7.5-1 to testing/linux 3.7.6-1 and rebooted.  After reboot, there was no nvidia module for X to find.  (running extra/nvidia 313.18-2)  Downgrading linux to testing/linux 3.7.5-1 fixed the problem completely.

Re: Linux 3.7.6 breaks nvidia systems

Have you tried rebuilding nvidia from ABS?
