What is a good strategy for setting use-flags to get the most out of a |
| 2 |
fairly recent graphics card these days? |

It used to be (for me at least) that I just made sure I had the latest |
| 5 |
opengl and associated libs, and the latest mesa if my card was |
| 6 |
supported. These days things get more complicated, especially if you |
| 7 |
want to try out KDE and plasma alongside Gnome. |

Do I just turn everything on globally (wayland egl gles gles1 gles2 |
| 10 |
opengl mesa gtk* ) , and then go through all conflicts one by one ? If |
| 11 |
not, what flags do I set globally, and which packages do I add specific |
| 12 |
use-flags to? |

My primary desktop is just fluxbox, but occasionally I like to run both |
| 15 |
KDE and Gnome stuff with everything turned on to the max. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I have plenty of CPU, so the stuff with "embedded" in the descriptions |
| 18 |
sound like I should leave them alone, but when I get down to resolving |
| 19 |
conflicts, it feels like I am going against the grain, with cascading |
| 20 |
dependencies leading into a murky mess of details. |

Some road signs, anyone? |
