[gentoo-user] »VIDEO_CARDS="matrox"« in make.conf - which package?

[Alexander Skwar]

Hello!

I'm currently cleaning up my make.conf and stumpled upon the line

	VIDEO_CARDS="matrox"

Sadly, I forgot to add a descriptive comment :( So I know wonder,
which package the VIDEO_CARDS setting influences. Could somebody
please be so nice and tell me?

Further, I'd like to know, which other cards I could set there -
but I guess, I'd be able to find that out on my own, if I'd knew
the correct package.

Thans a lot,

Alexander Skwar

I am pretty sure that x11-drm uses that. The ati cards can also use
"rage128" and "radeon" in that spot depending on the card:

According to the ebuild for x11-drm-4.3.0-r7
IUSE_VIDEO_CARDS="3dfx gamma i810 i830 matrox rage128 radeon sis mach64"

There was a man in a nuthouse who constantly scared off all the
newcomers with a menacing smile and the dreadful-sounding phrase, "I
differentiate you! I differentiate you!"--invariably the newcomer
would cower in the corner and stay far away from the man.

However, one day another man came in and confronted the first man. Of
course, the first began yelling at the newcomer, "I differentiate you!
I differentiate you!" But it had no effect on the newcomer. The man
yelled "I differentiate you!" several times to no avail. Finally, he
broke down in tears. "Why, why?!?" he asked.

The second man stated simply, "I'm e^x."
