Yep. I saw it switch to that during the emerge but I typed it in to
make sure. I downgraded back to the old versions and things are
working now. I did have to recompile all the input stuff again but at
least it works.
According to the forums, this is a known problem since xorg is
updated but apparently nvidia is not yet.
Yes, I see now. It works for me because I have the ~ version of the
nvidia driver
unmasked. I run the most recent kernel from Linus and the stable
driver won't compile
against his newer kernels.
I think this is a version mismatch thing. Xorg, nvidia and maybe
something else just don't like the currently available versions at the
moment. I did try that keyworded nvidia driver for my card but it
wasn't happy with it either. I think that was why I had a black
screen. I dunno.
At least it is working for now and maybe when the next version is
released all this will be fixed.
