Description Daniel Bausch 2010-02-18 10:08:28 UTC

There is a new revision (173.14.25) of nvidia's legacy driver online.
Please revbump the ebuild.

See http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_173.14.25.html
or http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_173.14.25.html

The short Changelog on the website says:
    * Added support for X.Org xserver 1.7
    * Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels
    * Updated nvidia-installer to detect newer Debian distributions that use /usr/lib32 instead of /emul/ia32-linux as the 32-bit library path

Doug, I'm going to bump this one to tree (based on previous ebuilds). I have it installed on my machine, no issues so far - it may have actually fixed some evdev related X crashes for me, but that's yet to be confirmed in longer time frame.
