I have an older Dell with AMD Athlon and nvidia integrated video that
I've been using as a PVR hooked up to an HDHomerun dual tuner box.
Today, I decided to update the system... big mistake... the nvidia
driver will not build. The video hardware according to "lspci -v" ...

"uname -a" reports

[ebuild R ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-195.36.31 USE="-acpi -custom-cflags

I've attached the build log. Any workarounds, or are the nouveau or
nv drivers polished enough that they can be used instead?
