You may also want other stuff. To stop xorg-server-1.5 I had to add >=x11-drivers/xf86-input-joystick-1.3.1 >=x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2 But there are still some 72 packages that want to emerge, a lot of them from x11-drivers; and I'm still too nervous about this to let it proceed. -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD
