The only way that you'll be able to resolve this is to remove the |
| 14 |
nvidia-drivers package and switch to Nouveau. If Nouveau works with |
| 15 |
your graphics chipset, it is win-win, since that driver is maintained in |
| 16 |
the kernel tree. Otherwise, keep checking to see if it becomes supported. |

You can work around it by masking ">x11-base/xorg-server-1.11", but that |
| 19 |
will (eventually) begin to cause problems as the rest of the system |
| 20 |
evolves around it. |

Is 173.14.xx the last driver that supports your card, or will any newer |
| 23 |
one support your card? Which chipset is your card using? |

A man who reasons deliberately, manages it better after studying Logic |
| 29 |
than he could before, if he is sincere about it and has common sense. |
