I was very sure that I had tested this twice with VIDEO_CARDS="ati". Both |
| 17 |
times the ati flag didn't get enabled i.e. emerge -vp x11-drm showed: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
[ebuild R ] x11-base/x11-drm-20051223 VIDEO_CARDS="-ati -i810 -mga -nv |
| 20 |
-savage -sis -tdfx -via" 0 kB |

This of course didn't result in the radeon driver being built. It seems, |
| 23 |
however, that my memory must be failing (can't find any other explanation) |
| 24 |
since when I remove the use flag now and set VIDEO_CARDS="ati" the flag does |
| 25 |
get enabled and the radeon module built. I really don't understand this - was |
| 26 |
so sure... |

So obviously there is no bug other than me.. ;) |

I have been using portage 2.1_pre4-r1 all along. Having portage sending mails |
| 34 |
to me is invaluable. :) |
