I am thorougly confused: things must be moving very quickly with xorg 7. I hope my jumping in here will not further confuse the issue. I have found various descriptions of the roots of the problem, and various solutions involving masking different combinations of packages. I had decided to drop

Good afternoon, everyone! I'm sorry to open such a thread again, but I found 2 topics regarding this issue here. It appears that one of them ("remove xorg-server to emerge nvidia-glx <=Normal?") had a solution but it was posted on a site (http://rafb.net/paste/results/HPsvCD94.html) which deletes t
