Howdy,
I have a home server/htpc (~x86) that I'm finally updating after a few
months and I hit an issue with xorg-server. Here's the background:
Was at xorg-server-1.6.3 and current sync tried to upgrade to 1.7.1,
which failed to compile. In researching on b.g.o., discovered that
nvidia has not released a driver yet that will work with 1.7.1, so
followed the bug report directions and masked out several packages to
prevent 1.7.1 upgrading.
I think the bug about ati-drivers should help:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=290739
From that bug, follow those two comments *exactly*:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=290739#c3
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=290739#c6
This should get you to a correctly installed 1.6.5 again.
