That would definitely be cool. Along the same lines, would there be some way to compile these drivers outside of the xorg-x11 ebuild? The reason that I ask is USE=3D"minimal" looks *perfect* for a GameCD, but without some of the drivers, it would probably not work out too well. Then again, I could just say that only cards that are supported via the "nvidia-*" and "ati-drivers" are supported, which would make things much easier... once ATI actually fixes their drivers to work with xorg 6.8.0, that is... *rolleyes* --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Operational/QA Manager Games - Developer Gentoo Linux --=-QtIwdYHLSj0VX7ZCk8rD Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBBnQaakT4lNIS36YERAh5BAJ4lGJi8wBr7QnmRUu11IyWQO08h2ACfenAB pbNMQ89Cqa+nbLdtlgXIqR4= =9ccT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-QtIwdYHLSj0VX7ZCk8rD--
