Yes, I have those as well but only because I also have them in
/etc/udev/devices and they get copied over at boot time. Maybe you have
"/sbin/modprobe nvidia" in rc.local? I recall seeing that as another
way of making sure that the nvidia module gets loaded (and presumably
the nvidia device drivers created in /dev). Otherwise, I'm not certain
why there's a difference between our respective systems.
