I can't remember the specific name of it, had to do with ?OpenCL? or ?CUDA?
Other posters on this list using "x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers" could tell
you exactly why.
I should have saved those e-mails, but didn't. :(

 X.Org only uses its own drivers by default.
 For the nvidia driver, you need a conf file.

Which one would that be?
I would not expect any tools or utilities to be added when selecting static 
libraries.

You might want to add "static-libs" to the use flags as well. Another
useful utility gets built by it.

Add the "tools" USE flag to get nvidiasettings and similar.

Am going to try a later version of drivers and kernel myself later.

It doesn't seem to be available on my machine :

Those are for the version which works & which I've had to restore,

Further suggestions are very welcome.
