4 On the Nvidia web site, they have a source RPM (but no tar) for the GLX
5 driver. I don't know what all is contained in it, but would it be
6 possible to make an ebuild to extract the source from the rpm, compile
7 it (optimized), and install it? If it were possible, I think it would be
8 better than using the binary version. I would think that this would make
9 prelinking possible if it were compiled right, and you could probably
10 get performance gains by compiling it with your customized CFLAGS.
11
12 So, how about it? Has anybody looked at the source RPM from Nvidia? Has
13 anybody tried compiling it? Can this be added to portage? Will I ever be
14 able to play tuxracer again?
