when i try 'emerge -p kde' & for several other packages,
among the list of dependencies are :

  [ebuild  N    ] media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.4496-r3  
  [ebuild  N    ] media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.4496  

i can't get the Nvidia drivers to work w my mobo
-- it doesn't (yet) support the VIA KT400 chip -- ,
so i rely on software acceler'n & have unmerged those  2  packages.

can i safely add them to  /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask ?
why indeed are they listed as dependencies ?
