Yeah, you can wait until nVidia releases fixed drivers.

I think that yes, but this version does not support my video card, and i'm receiving another error.

No

im voting here in the hope somebody from upstream will get off their ass and decide to do the customer service part of their job. this crap is beyond a joke.

If you can't wait for upstream here's the quick'n'dirty workaround

emerge --nodeps nvidia-drivers
startx -- -ignoreABI

I know this really should be fixed with a new driver-version...

Folks, could you take the debate to forums.gentoo.org please? This is not a discussion forum.
Comment 13 Jeff 2007-09-19 03:20:50 UTC
Nvidia 100.14.19 released today is compatible with xorg-server-1.4. 

Should have blocked <=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-100.14.11, xorg-server-r1 blocks the compatible driver.

How does this help this bug? Is Nvidia now supporting 96xx generation drivers with 100.14.11 or not?, if not, we still have to wait for a 96xx family compatible version ( if nvidia can be bothered releasing one ). 

I pitty those in the 7xxx tree :/.

A little observation I made. The Important Stuff is at the bottom. 
Note a reference to 96.43.xx  now instead of 1.0-96xx, and noting that there is currently no 9643 i can get my hands on, Im presuming its not far from arriving, so maybe not all is lost :)
