I did but I couldn't get X to even start. I guess something is not set |
14 |
right somewhere. I have nv in make.conf and been there since I built |
15 |
this thing so sort of clueless on why it don't work. |

Maybe it's because I don't use the latest greatest cards but I don't |
18 |
think I have ever really had trouble with nvidia drivers. Surely it |
19 |
can't be good luck. ;-) |

While I am at it, what is the syntax to mask a package higher than a |
22 |
certain version in package.mask? I tired =>package.name.version and |
23 |
tried >= package.name.version but the former doesn't work and seems to |
24 |
ignore it and the later makes emerge print a boo boo message. On my old |
25 |
rig, I want to mask anything above the 173 series. So far, I haven't |
26 |
had the light bulb moment and never can remember how to do this. |
