14 Can you post you USE-FLAGS in make.conf and the settings for the video
15 card from there, too? Mine looks like

17 -gnome -ipv6 jikes jpeg jpeg2k kde lo
18 grotate mmx -motif nvidia -ogg -oggvorbis opengl png qt qt3 sse sse2
19 symlink -tcpd test tiff truetype vorbis
20 X"
21 LINGUAS="de en"
22 Language=49

24 # xorg-x11
25 INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse"
26 #VIDEO_CARDS="nv vga v4l"
27 VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia vga v41 vesa fbdev"

29 I have a GeForce 6800 GT running flawlessly with 3D since one or two
30 weeks, apart from becoming quite hot. (Its a Gainward card with high
31 performance so I think thats normal).
32
33 Set the flags and do a emerge --newuse -u -D world and if that doesn't
34 help we can go through X.org config and kernel config.
