You will need a few things to get XGL running with NVidia's proprietary drivers, such as an alpha version of Mesa, new versions of glitz and much more. Checking out the HOWTO_XGL page on gentoo-wiki.com will tell you exactly what you need to install. Just look at Hanno's overlay to see what you're putting on your computer. Jason, thank you very much for your reply! Your guess is correct. I have a stable modular xorg-server-1.0 and xorg-x11-7.0 installed from the official portage. Following your advise I checked the gentoo-wiki-xgl article again. I saw there are changes, but it (again) lead me to unmasking many packages and finally installing xorg 7.1. So I reverted the changes and tried another approach. I removed the portage-xgl overlay and checked-in hanno-xgl. Much better! Thanks again, Jason! I tried to emerge compiz directly but it needed to get unkeyworded. The following packages: x11-wm/compiz media-libs/mesa x11-libs/libdrm x11-base/xgl dev-util/git media-libs/glitz found the way to get their names listed in /etc/portage/package.keywords :) Now emerge -p compiz xgl has no complains. Actually all dependencies got emerged, but compiz fails with: ---snip Making all in kde Making all in window-decorator Making all in po Source compiled.

Re: [gentoo-user] xgl, masked packages, and me going crazy
I believe that missing keyword stuff can be unmasked if you put x11-libs/libdrm - in your package.keywords. This is just a guess, but I think it should work. This isn't a fix, you should probably file a bugzilla report on it, as nothing in the package database should be without a keyword. -- Jason Weisberger[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Second, you're right about the the lack of clarity in my question. I'm sorry about that. Please, let me try to explain what I had in mind. ===correct me if I'm wrong=== I think Nvidia cards do not work with DRI as all other cards, but they use their own glx and kernel drivers for direct rendering.
