Well, running systemd now I can reboot into OpenRC; it just works. |

It's happening, `find /usr/portage/profiles/ -name '*systemd*'`; does |
15 |
it have any consequences that are worth thinking through? |

Well, running NVIDIA now I can reboot with a simple script[1] put |
21 |
in /etc/local.d/nvidia.start (with execute permission); this works for |
22 |
me on both OpenRC and systemd, I'd say it is easy to do. Perhaps it can |
23 |
even be made more easy by rewriting the Xorg configuration to be device |
24 |
aware and therefore not needing the steps shown in this script. |
