emerge -C nvidia-settings fix the problem. IMHO, Developers should be report to users about nvidia-settings.

Understand Jakob? Is NOT nvidia-drivers block, is ONLY nvidia-settings block. I think, ppl will be report duplicate bugs very soon. waiting :)

Where do you see *any* mention of nvidia-settings above? It's simply not true, I have just installed it, no block whatsoever, also read Comment #9 - nvidia-settings doesn't block anything at all. Which version of nvidia-settings did you install?

i'm lost some strings in previous message. dds ~ # equery d nvidia-drivers [ Searching for packages depending on nvidia-drivers... ] dds ~ # No depends?!
And, still no block here... And not on any other box I've tried. Unmerge it, go upgrade your xorg-server, try again.
