The current version of nvidia-drivers I have installed is pretty old but it's the last one I've found that will display the resolution of my monitor correctly at 1366x768. The later versions insist on 1280x768 I think. I need to re-compile the nvidia module since I'm upgrading the kernel, but how can I do that if there is no ebuild? I use 'eclean distfiles' regularly and apparently eclean will delete the distfile of an installed program since the distfile for the version of nvidia-drivers I have installed doesn't exist in /usr/portage/distfiles.
I would at least try to get the right resolution working with the latest nvidia-drivers but I don't think I'll be able to revert back to the old version since 'emerge -K =nvidia-drivers-1.0.9639' doesn't work. I'm not sure why since I've always had FEATURES="buildpkg" set. Can I build a binary package now in case I need to revert? - Grant -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
