Do you have xfce-extra/xfce4-sensors-plugin with |
| 18 |
USE="video_cards_nvidia" resp. VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" installed? |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Because this pulls in media-video/nvidia-settings. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
My guess is that media-video/nvidia-settings is now included in |
| 23 |
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers and is therefore not needed anymore as a |
| 24 |
separate package. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
As a workaround, because I hadn't had time to file a bug report when I |
| 27 |
discovered this, I just reinstalled xfce-extra/xfce4-sensors-plugin with |
| 28 |
USE="-video_cards_nvidia". |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
There are some other packages which pull in media-video/nvidia-settings |
| 31 |
if VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" is set. So if you don't use Xfce it's probably |
| 32 |
one of those packages. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Just run `equery depends nvidia-settings` or `emerge -pv --tree ...` to |
| 35 |
see by which package it gets pulled in. |
