\nCurrently loaded NVIDIA modules do not match the newly installed
libraries and may prevent launching GPU-accelerated applications.
Easiest way to fix this is normally to reboot. If still run into issues
(e.g. API mismatch messages in the \`dmesg\` output), please verify
that the running kernel is ${KV_FULL} and that (if used) the
initramfs does not include NVIDIA modules (or at least, not old ones).
\nDetected that the current kernel command line is using 'slub_debug=',
this may lead to system instability/freezes with this version of
${PN}. Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/796329
\n***WARNING***
\nYou are installing a version of ${PN} known not to work
with a GPU of the current system. If unwanted, add the mask:
  echo '${NV_LEGACY_MASK}' > ${EROOT}/etc/portage/package.mask/${PN}
  echo '${NV_LEGACY_MASK}' >> ${EROOT}/etc/portage/package.mask
...then downgrade to a legacy[1] branch if possible (not all old versions
are available or fully functional, may need to consider nouveau[2]).

\nBe warned/reminded that the 470.xx branch reached end-of-life and
NVIDIA is no longer fixing issues (including security). Free to keep
using (for now) but it is recommended to either switch to nouveau or
replace hardware. Will be kept in-tree while possible, but expect it
to be removed likely in late 2027 or earlier if major issues arise.
\nNote that there is no plans to patch in support for kernels branches
newer than 6.6.x which will be supported upstream until December 2026.
