Hi folks.
Word of warning. I been upset before, I have even been mad before,
right now, I'm pissed. This is not normal for me but it is what it is.
I tried the new xorg with the hal flag turned on. Let's just say it was
a nightmare, AGAIN. I want my old way back to say it lightly. I put
-hal in package.use for xorg-server. I put my old xorg.conf file back
as well. I re-emerged the keyboard, mouse, video and evdev just in case
it mattered. I also re-emerged xorg-server. My problem you ask. The
nvidia drivers won't load. It defaults to the nv drivers. No splash
screen anymore. Also, my mouse wheel doesn't work anymore either. That
really set me off. I use my wheel as much as I use the left button.

All those have been re-emerged since disabling the hal with package.use.
What have I missed? Clues? Ideas?
I'm going to go paint my roof and vent some frustration.
Thanks.
