Description Nate Weibley 2009-12-14 22:05:22 UTC
nvidia-drivers v 190.53 has been released. Please bump ebuild version.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Michael Weber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-12-15 08:36:11 UTC
It would be nice to mention the source, ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/b\cause it's not in their web interface http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html jet.
Comment 2 Michael Weber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-12-15 09:01:12 UTC
renamed nvidia-drivers-190.42 ebuild runns out of the box, 
please include http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=296272 for git sourced kernels.

That'll break VDPAU in certain situations. I'll be adding an ebuild shortly.
Comment 4 David Watzke 2009-12-18 11:07:58 UTC
problem is that ebuild needs to copy libvdpau_nvidia.so.190.53 to 
/usr/lib/vdpau/ (instead of /usr/lib/) and make symlinks (also in /usr/lib/vdpau/)
libvdpau_nvidia.so -> libvdpau_nvidia.so.190.53
libvdpau_nvidia.so.1 -> libvdpau_nvidia.so.190.53

I've done that by hand and it works for me.

  -nvidia-drivers-190.53.ebuild:
  as stated in bug #296947, this breaks VDPAU, but apparently peper, who's
  not a maintainer knows better.
Could you maybe just mask the ebuild, instead of deleting it? You could revbump into an unmasked ebuild later. That way people who do not depend on VDPAU could still use this version of the drivers.

Patch that installs libvdpau_nvidia to proper location and creates symlink

I don't sure that it's a proper way to do that but it should work on any platform (tested only on x86-64)
