Well, read the messages on the screen when you try to emerge nvidia-drivers. Doesn't it say, that Gentoo only supports the kernels that NVIDIA supports and that you shall not report a bug nvidia-drivers failing? > I should perhaps just patiently wait for the eventual rapid fix, because this > error is a real show stopper, but I will make an inquiry nonetheless. > Has anyone on the list encountered this error with nvidia and kernel-3.10? My interpretation of this message in the nvidia-drivers ebuild is that the maintainers assume that you switch to nouveau. Nouveau works great for office stuff. But when it comes to gaming I'm hitting a few obstacles. For example, 32bit apps (like wine) are stuck with whatever mesa version is supplied by the emul* packages (mesa 9.0.1 or whatever). It's 2013, and Gentoo still doesn't have proper multilib support in the portage tree. Gentoo is certainly to blame here, but I'd even go further and blame autoconf. Regards, Sven
