16 Yes, now it is not in the portage since it was replaced along with
17 nvidia-kernel by nvidia-drivers. My guess is that you have nvidia-kernel
18 and/or nvidia-glx installed before the replacement took place. So, now
19 they are installed but not in the portage. That is why I proposed you to
20 "unmerge" them by "emerge -C"
