I looked at man portage, and I am not quite sure about this: Is it possible to unmask the useflag by, for example, writing to /etc/portage/use.mask the line "-video_cards_nvidia"? Or must I modify /etc/make.profile/use.mask?
I believe adding "-video_cards_nvidia" to /etc/portage/profile/use.mask (notice the directory!) should do it. But really this doesn't matter...this use flag is only used to add a dependancy on the nvidia drivers for xorg-x11. Having the nvidia flag masked doesn't in any way prevent you from unmasking x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers, merging them, and using nvidia in xorg.conf. -Richard -- [email protected] mailing list
