| 13 | Hello |
| 14 | |
| 15 | I would like to get rid of all unnecessary x11-drivers/xf86-video-* |
| 16 | packages. |
| 17 | I do NOT want to migrate to "Modular X". |
| 18 | |
| 19 | I set my video card in /etc/make.conf as follows: |
| 20 | VIDEO_CARDS="i810" |
| 21 | |
| 22 | What should I do now. Just "emerge --unmerge" on each unnecessary |
| 23 | package ? |
| 24 | Is it sufficient for emerge to NOT to install drivers on an upgrade |
| 25 | xorg in the future. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | Thanks for answer. |

| 35 | You alreads USE "modular X", if you have separate xf86-video-* packages |
| 36 | installed. |
| 37 | If you set VIDEO_CARDS to what you want and emerge -auDN world, so |
| 38 | xorg-server pulls in the dependencies, you should be able to remove all |
| 39 | unneeded packages with "emerge -a --depclean". Be careful though, |
| 40 | that's not a toy. You might as well just "emerge --unmerge" the |
| 41 | packages you don't want anymore. |
