My problems:
1) Gentlemen, with this hardware when i try to compile some "nice"
software like chromium, pyside or openoffice my system "freeze". I
can't do anything like use keyboard, mouse or switch betwenn windows.
How can i find the motive to this strange (???) problem? I've used
--load-average in MAKEOPTS with the same result.
2) The source x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-256.53 don't compile against
kernel-2.6.36-r3 and upgrading to nvidia-drivers-260.19.21 my X don't
start using the same LG FLATRON W2043S. Appears to be a resolution
problem, cos the light that monitor blink and the screen keep black. A
bug?

For #1. Mine does this at times when compiling OOo too. I think it
hits spots in the compile process that are really using the CPU and it
just crams it through. I had it do it on my current machine and on
another machine I installed OOo on. I don't think this is to out of the
norm. I guess if you have fast enough processor that you won't be able
to tell it tho.
I haven't' noticed this in the other packages tho. I don't use chromium
and don't think I use pyside either.
For #2. I have a older card and sometimes I have to unmask a newer
nvidia driver to get it to work. Sometimes, I have to use a somewhat
older kernel until nvidia gets the driver updated to work with the new
kernel, usually not to long tho. You use a newer driver but still may
have to check and make sure the driver works with that kernel. Gentoo
is bleeding edge sometimes. ;-)
