Re: [gentoo-user] Horde and a question about masked ebuilds

1. What exactly is masking, and why would these ebuilds be masked (ie, are they broken, do they smell funny)? Masking ebuilds is a way to make unstable packages available to Gentoo users while not emerging them when using default settings. You have to take specific actions to do so. The

Are you using the driver from Nvidia site? It's one file and needs to be made executable. After doing this, from a console (can't install this driver while in X) you simply type ./Name of driver and everything should be taken care of. It will not find a module in the kernel for this

The key here is the unresolved symbols. I would guess that you have recompiled your kernel. nVidia's kernel module has a core of propriatary binary. Which means you have to be extra careful. Do a "make clean" before every kernel build and build both bzImage and modules. I also think that it is
