The script tries to detect the nvidia drivers.  If it finds them is supposed to
issue a warning.  Sounds like your system might not have a version that it knows
how to detect.

Good question, I don't know.  In my experience both NFS and ext3 root crashes
with the nvidia drivers.  I have a patch to the version of QEMU I use that
disables all of GL to work around the problem.

I believe it's mhatle/qemu on poky-contrib... but it hasn't been updated for a
while now.
