Nope, doesn't work. Same problem. I emerged with --nodeps the xorg-x11
package, with exactly the video-cards I want. Then I've tried the -k as you
suggested, and still *ALL* other video-drivers are shown in the list, and
VIDEO_CARDS did not show the same content as without -k.
Do you have buildpkg in FEATURES? If not, you might need to do:
emerge --nodeps xorg-x11
quickpkg xorg-x11
emerge -k xorg-x11
If you don't have buildpkg in FEATURES, and don't do the quickpkg
step, then the second emerge will again look at your existing binary
package of xorg-x11, and use the settings from that.
