35 Hi,
36
37 That means that you have monolithic Xorg installed, which is now hard
38 masked, and that the packages you want to install want to install
39 components of modular Xorg (the two won't mix). Sometimes you can avoid
40 the problem by removing one or more USE flags, but in the long run, the
41 better solution would be to go to modular Xorg, since it is the only one
42 supported now.

44 Regards,
45 Chris
