For the static libGL.a library..... # locate libGL.a /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/libGL.a so I added /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib to the LDPATH in /etc/env.d/10xorg and re-ran env-update. No help, same result :-(
did you run `opengl-update`?
No, I didn't and this does seem to have fixed the problem :-) It looks as if there's no reference to opengl-update in the ebuild comment for either xorg-x11 nvidia-kernel. Perhaps some advisory einfo output would be appropriate in the post-install notes from the ebuild. I had no idea that this utility existed. Close this bug if you wish, or assign it as a real-time documentation issue.
I'm pretty sure it's somewhere in Gentoo's X or Nvidia docs.
I have the same problem with wxGTK 2.6.2 (2.6.1 compiled just fine). I did try to run "eselect opengl set nvidia" and I also tried to switch to xorg-x11 and back to nvidia and configure still complains it can't find opengl.
