just in case anyone has the same problem I did... idiotic me, missing the masked drivers on the portage tree. Apparently what happened was I tried to install the *official* official drivers from the actual .run file. bad idea. but I needed the later ones, and protage hadn't cut it, until I found the masked buld. read below for more info:
(10:56:31) roger55: hi (10:56:38) roger55: look at this (10:56:53) utopian_fiat: k (10:56:56) roger55: roger # locate libGL.la (10:56:56) roger55: /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.la (10:56:56) roger55: /usr/portage/media-video/nvidia-glx/files/libGL.la (10:56:56) roger55: /usr/portage/media-video/nvidia-glx/files/libGL.la.1 (10:56:56) roger55: /usr/portage/x11-base/xfree/files/4.2.1-r2/lib/libGL.la (10:56:57) roger55: /usr/portage/x11-base/xfree/files/4.3.0/lib/libGL.la (10:57:00) roger55: [EMAIL PROTECTED] roger # qpkg -f /usr/lib/opengl/xfree/lib/libGL.la (10:57:01) roger55: x11-base/xfree * (10:57:15) roger55: ^^ that's on my system (10:57:21) roger55: you use the nvidia one (10:57:35) roger55: did you emerge nvidia-glx ? (10:57:44) roger55: then opengl-update nvidia ? (10:58:06) utopian_fiat: I think I found the problem (10:58:18) roger55: what is it? (10:58:57) utopian_fiat: the official drivers... >< I didn't realize until about 5 days after I installed the official drivers that the latest official were masked on the portage tree (10:59:11) utopian_fiat: and I failed to uninstall the official ones (10:59:17) roger55: ah right. (10:59:19) utopian_fiat: which is a major problem (10:59:30) utopian_fiat: because gentoo is VERY organized (11:00:00) roger55: I see. (11:00:32) utopian_fiat: ahh... see, now, libGL.la no longer exists (11:00:37) roger55: ;) (11:00:58) utopian_fiat: but now I reinstalled the nvidia drivers and it still doesn't exist (11:01:02) roger55: use the gentoo ones and opengl-update nvidia (11:01:15) roger55: it'll probably be somewhere else (11:02:06) utopian_fiat: yeah (11:02:08) utopian_fiat: I suppose (11:02:18) utopian_fiat: let's retry that thar emerge now (11:02:28) roger55: k (11:03:20) utopian_fiat: hoooooly **** (11:03:26) utopian_fiat: worked like a charm ---SNIP--- Thanks, everyone.
