Nope, doesn't work. Same problem. I emerged with --nodeps the xorg-x11 |
| 21 |
package, with exactly the video-cards I want. Then I've tried the -k as you |
| 22 |
suggested, and still *ALL* other video-drivers are shown in the list, and |
| 23 |
VIDEO_CARDS did not show the same content as without -k. |
