16 Glad it worked. Investigate modules-rebuild as it keeps track of these
17 things and does it for you pretty easily. Here's what's in my list:
18
19 c2stable ~ # module-rebuild list
20 ** Packages which I will emerge are:
21 =x11-base/xorg-drivers-1.7
22 =x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.3.2
23 =x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.13.0
24 =x11-drivers/xf86-video-fbdev-0.4.2
25 =x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard-1.4.0
26 =x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse-1.5.0
27 =x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware-11.0.1
28 =media-libs/mesa-7.8.1
29 =app-emulation/vmware-modules-1.0.0.26
30 c2stable ~ #
31
32 The first time you add modules you have to specify the currently
33 installed package. After it's set up you run it telling the program to
34 disregard the package rev:
35
36 modules-rebuild -X rebuild
37
38 and it all gets done.

40 Cheers,
