After installation of =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-346.16 and rebooting, I got a black screen and the following in xorg.0.log: [ 12.407] (==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d" [ 12.407] Parse error on line 7 of section OutputClass in file /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf "OutputClass" is not a valid section name. [ 12.408] (EE) Problem parsing the config file [ 12.408] (EE) Error parsing the config file [ 12.408] (EE) Fatal server error: [ 12.408] (EE) no screens found(EE) [ 12.408] (EE) Renaming 50-nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf to something not ending in .conf lets the system startup fine to X. Checking the changelogs of xorg upstream, it seems the outputclass-section is only supported >=xorg-1.16.0, I use last "stable" 1.15.0 on this system. Could this file be installed conditionally (may need a subslot-dep on X then to re-install the driver if X is updated)? Reproducible: Always
Please post your `emerge --info x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers x11-base/xorg-server' output in a comment.

I just saw you latest ebuild, it indeed fixes this problem for me (the .conf file is not installed anymore as expected for this emerge --info output). Thanks a lot!
14 Nov 2014; Jeroen Roovers <jer@gentoo.org> nvidia-drivers-346.16.ebuild: Set sub-SLOT dependency on x11-base/xorg-server. Install nvidia-drm- outputclass.conf only when >x11-base/xorg-server-1.16 (bug #529254 by Oliver Freyermuth). Now I'm just curious why you'd want to stick with an old xorg-server version.
(In reply to Jeroen Roovers from comment #4) > Now I'm just curious why you'd want to stick with an old xorg-server version. That's due to bug #526470 (and my laziness to keyword, I'm using a very mixed-stable system at the moment).
