It's much better to `paxctl-ng -m /usr/bin/Xorg` instead. And probably few |

other applications (mplayer, glxgears, etc.). |

Also, you can install latest stable nvidia-drivers by simple removing this |
11 |
line from ebuild (bug already reported): |
12 |
|
13 |
epatch "${FILESDIR}"/nvidia-drivers-pax-const.patch |

Main issue with nvidia-drivers on hardened is what sometimes some race |
17 |
condition happens and system just freezes. This may happens when starting |
18 |
mplayer with hardware acceleration: |
19 |
mplayer -vf-clr -vo vdpau -vc ffh264vdpau,ffmpeg12vdpau, … |
20 |
or just in the middle of viewing video using flash in browser. |

Not sure about flash, but when this happens with mplayer I've tried to |
23 |
analyse what's going on: system is working, but incredible slow, it took |
24 |
about 10 minutes to switch to another virtual desktop, run top, found |
25 |
mplayer process using 100% CPU, try to kill it (don't remember is it was |
26 |
successful or not), but it won't fix anything - system still was too slow. |
27 |
In all cases I've to press RESET because trying to do normal shutdown |
28 |
procedure may took hours. |
