Description Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-06-03 08:35:12 UTC
X.Org**	1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 1.10, 1.11, 1.12, 1.13, 1.14, 1.15, 1.16

PLease add support for xorg-server-1.15.99.902-r2 to nvidia-drivers.

I tried it and it doesn't work. Nvidia says the driver supports ABI 18. when xorg-server-1.15.99.902-r2 starts the video driver fails. It says it does not support ABI 17.

Googling around I saw there was an issue in last April regarding the move from ABI 17 to 18. I guess there are still issues.

As previously noted in bug #511868 comment #2, I'll add it when we have 1.16 in the tree and thoroughly tested. I don't want people to confidently upgrade xorg-server and deps and then having to downgrade (and file more bug reports).

=x11-base/xorg-server-1.15.99.903 should have the correct ABI_VIDEODRV_VERSION (18). Testing now...
