From: Chris Stankevitz To: "gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org" Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-Archives-Salt: 53877eee-11f4-427b-99ef-363c2bdd5244 X-Archives-Hash: 3fe405b80178a40fb103c2bec3420757 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=447566 This bug describes a problem people are having with nvidia/kernel. My question: Are "regular" nvidia users who run a completely stable system (with only stable nvidia-drivers and stable gentoo-sources) affected by any of this? I run a stable system but I've been afraid to sync for fear I'll get sucked into having to mask/unmask packages and keep up with the unfolding drama. Thank you, Chris
