Yes, there is a variable that you can set in /etc/make.conf VIDEO_CARDS="sis" ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1" ##nice one to set as well
To see a full list of the cards available for the variables run #emerge --info >From the output you can see which options are available. Once you set these variables in make.conf portage will not build the other packages. For example; I have VIDEO_CARDS="nv" so when I build X if does not compile anything depending with sis or any of the other options available for the VIDEO_CARDS option. -----Original Message----- From: Daniel da Veiga [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2007 2:01 PM To: gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Can't emerge X11 On 9/5/07, Dennis Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Francesco Talamona wrote: > > On Wednesday 05 September 2007, Dennis Taylor wrote: > >> Fails while building sis_dri.c.
