It's happening, `find /usr/portage/profiles/ -name '*systemd*'`; does it have any consequences that are worth thinking through? > Conceptually, it is rather similar to switching between nouveau and > nvidia. That doesn't have eselect support[1] or profiles. Well, running NVIDIA now I can reboot with a simple script[1] put in /etc/local.d/nvidia.start (with execute permission); this works for me on both OpenRC and systemd, I'd say it is easy to do. Perhaps it can even be made more easy by rewriting the Xorg configuration to be device aware and therefore not needing the steps shown in this script.
