I don't know what all is contained in it, but would it be possible to make an ebuild to extract the source from the rpm, compile it (optimized), and install it? If it were possible, I think it would be better than using the binary version. I would think that this would make prelinking possible if it were compiled right, and you could probably get performance gains by compiling it with your customized CFLAGS. So, how about it? Has anybody looked at the source RPM from Nvidia? Has anybody tried compiling it? Can this be added to portage? Will I ever be able to play tuxracer again? - -- Robert Thomas Georgia Institute of Technology Email: gtg663h@mail.gatech.edu -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE+Qc9GkRe6eFyQaRcRAvtEAJ47sE1ypvSmvr4kXBj+PcKrkfqufACfVaWl eJwiOmAxAJgj9umj+w6OUas= =RKgf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
