 >I don't know how video cards are masked.  I'm sure someone could tell 
me quicker than I can figure it out myself.

I was looking in the wrong use.mask file.  I found it.
Nouveau was masked 4 years ago because it needs testing.  So, I'll just 
unmask it and see what happens.

One more question...  for newer cards than mine, nouveau requires 
firmware blobs for some acceleration.  Are those blobs independent of 
the computer, or do they require an intel/amd cpu?  The Gentoo nvidia 
firmware package only shows amd64 and i386, I think.

Adios,  DW
