Stable at this moment nvidia-drivers-96.43.11 couldn't be compiled with now stable gentoo-sources-2.6.30-r4. Can be solved by stabilizing nvidia-drivers-96.43.13.

I thought we had a stabilisation request going already...
Versions to stabilise would be: =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-71.86.11 =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-96.43.13 =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-173.14.20 Don't know about the >180 series. All agreed?
(In reply to comment #3 in Bug 281879) > Please try =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-96.43.13 instead. > * I could compile with this driver and kernel 2.6.30-r4 * I could boot OK * X starts (still using x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r6, but now I feel confident to update that, too; having nvidia and the kernel out of the way) * Have X running for a few hours now.
Tried 2.6.30-gentoo-r4 with nvidia-drivers-96.43.11 and was getting the XEN error and my /usr/src/linux/.config contains: # CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST is not set I have Found a bugs.gentoo.org thread where it was suggested to try nvidia-drivers-96.43.13.

Sorry, please disregard the previous post , it seems that setting the IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE env variable DOES allow me to compile the module, the problem was a faulty distcc client on my network.
Please test and mark stable. If you can't find the hardware to test with, then a compile test should suffice.
I'm using this driver on amd64 since 2009-08-03 without any issue. Please, stabilize amd64
Should be done for amd64 at last (compile-test).
