Hi,

What about sth. like this:

> fglrx - VIDEO_CARDS setting to build driver for fglrx video cards
fglrx - Build AMD's proprietary video driver for r300-r600 video cards
> nv - VIDEO_CARDS setting to build driver for nv video cards
nv - Open source driver for Nvidia cards, only supports 2D
(I don't know what cards it supports.)
nouveau - Open source driver for Nvidia cards, with 3D support
(When it will make it to portage, at some time in the future. ;-))
> nvidia - VIDEO_CARDS setting to build driver for nvidia video cards
nvidia - Nvidia's proprietary video driver (some cards need a special
version)
> radeon - ATI Radeon up to X1050-series (i.e. Radeon SDR/DDR, Radeon
> 7000-9800, and Radeon X300-X1050 are supported)
radeon - Open source driver with 3D support, that supports ATI cards up
to r500 chips (r600 Chips without 3D acceleration)
radeonhd - New open source driver based on AMD's released documentation,
with support for r500/r600 chips

Generally I think, that the text "VIDEO_CARDS setting to build driver
for X cards" really doesn't help anyone, then you could also just leave
it blank, which might actually be a good idea, because that encourages
people to place something good in there.
