Hi,

That means that you have monolithic Xorg installed, which is now hard
masked, and that the packages you want to install want to install
components of modular Xorg (the two won't mix).  Sometimes you can avoid
the problem by removing one or more USE flags, but in the long run, the
better solution would be to go to modular Xorg, since it is the only one
supported now.

Regards,
Chris
