I just switched to modular X, and got to the point where the system comes up okay. I have a few remaining puzzles and problems. Here's one:
When I do emerge -aDvu world, it wants to emerge [ebuild N ] virtual/x11-7.0-r2 USE="dri" 0 kB The migration guide says this can happen when there's an outdated package. But equery says there are well over 100 such packages that depend on virtual/x11. And they're all up to date. I've been running stable so far, with very few exceptions. Am I really to go unstable with all of these? This seems extreme in view of the fact that a great many of them are KDE things, but KDE seems to be working just fine. What's a guy to do? Can I get away with just waiting for a while? ++ kevin -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
