hmm, ran #emerge -pv xf86-intel-driver and it came back with [ebuild ud]. Portage wanted to downgrade 2.9.1 with 2.8.1, so I did. IIRC I upgraded to 2.9.1 to fix another video problem. Or, maybe it was the same one. I'll have to look over my history to be sure. Meanwhile, I'll wait and see; the problem was intermittant; sometimes the SOD appeared in a few minutes, sometimes it took days. mw
