Hi all,
I have no xorg.conf, so hal does all the conf stuff for me.
My problem (I think) is that I have both modules in my sytem:
[I] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers
$ grep nv /etc/make.conf
VIDEO_CARDS="vesa nvidia"
and seems that Xorg tries some drivers and finally loads nv driver:
from less /var/log/Xorg.0.log, some relevant info:

from here all refers to NV.
Am Iworng or my xorg uses nv driver? if so, how may I force hal to use
nvidia driver? what about dri module? why is it failling to load it?
TIA,
