First you have to decide if you want to use the free or the closed
nvidia driver. note: the closed source driver is only necessary if you
need 3d support e.g. for games.

Then set your VIDEO_CARDS variable in /etc/make.conf to the driver you
want to use, this should pull in the driver you need as an dependency
of xorg-server.

nano -w /etc/make.conf
add the line VIDEO_CARDS="nv" #for open source driver
or VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" #for the binary nvidia driver
hit ctrl+x to exit and y to apply the changes
then emerge -av xorg-server
and see if the driver you want to use is pulled in as dependency
after emerge is finished run xorgconfig.

hope this helps.
