For your information, nvidia-drivers-1.0.8776 and xorg-server-1.0.2-r7
are compatible; -1.0.8776 and the xorg-server-1.1.1 series are not.
Reason is changes in xorg-server, and if you try the combination
-1.0.8776 and -1.1.1, you should not get anywhere at all:  it flat out
won't work.  I don't know off hand what xorg-server version the
nvidia-drivers-1.0.9xxx need.  The ebuilds will let you build an
incompatible pairing.
