Is there some document somewhere that led you to these settings?  If

No, haven't seen it mentioned in the docs. I have been following some of the threads and something similar was mentioned a while back.

If those stanzas are mentioned, in which doc is it?

For the video (notice the S in CARDS):
VIDEO_CARDS="nv nvidia vesa"
(leave out the nvidia if you don't want to mess with proprietary drivers)

I want to try some games, so I am using your suggestion, including the proprietary drivers.

For sound, SOUND_CARD is not a valid option.  You can set ALSA_CARDS
to have alsa-drivers only build specific drivers, but that is
optional, and only applies to the alsa-drivers package.  If you use
the sound drivers from the kernel, this has no effect.  The correct
setting for ALSA_CARDS would probably be:

ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1"
Thanks!.

BTW, I am trying to build myself a gaming/audio recording box (which will be slightly more powerful than this one, which I have named tinwhistle). This is my current workstation/playstation/recording station box, running Fedora Core 4, DuMuDi, Gentoo and Windows XP pro multiboot box. So far, so good.

Is anyone on this list using Ardour on Gentoo yet?  I am compiling that now.

I had to partition my drives 5 times before I got the sizes I needed to compile America's army and I think I finally got it right.

I may give this box to a friend of mine after I get my new box (uilleann) built. I dread installing Windows XP Pro yet again.
