1 Hey all. Just so you know, now that I've read the news about the changes
2 to nvidia-drivers and nvidia-legacy-drivers (from cardoe's blog
3 http://blog.cardoe.com/archives/2007/07/19/nvidia-drivers-updates/), I'm
4 rewriting the nVidia guide and other guides that mention the nvidia drivers.
5
6 The gist of it is that nvidia-legacy-drivers is going away, in favor of
7 an all-inclusive nvidia-drivers ebuild with versions for everything
8 available, including the one that used to be in -legacy. It's got a
9 smart new nvidia.eclass to do some autodetection so that the right
10 driver gets installed for your card(s).
11
12 Anyway, just letting you know that I'm working on it, so don't bother to
13 open bugs or poke the files (nvidia-guide.xml, dri-howto.xml,
14 gentoo-amd64-faq.xml). I anticipate having these finished soon.
