Description Greg Coit 2002-04-24 22:17:18 UTC

I installed gentoo 1.1a on a system, emerge -rsynced tand received the new
sys-kernel tree.  All works well (I think the new tree makes a lot of sense)
bbut it breaks the install of the nvidia drivers.  emerge
media-video/nvidia-kernel media-video/nvidia-glx causes the
sys-kernel/linux-sources-2.4.19-r1 to try and be emerged - this brings up the
message about thge new systree and then this: !!! emerge aborting on 
/usr/portage/sys-kernel/linux-sources/linux-sources-2.4.19-r1.ebuild .

Sorry if this is a repeat - I tried to find an existing bug report on this - no
luck.

Feel free to email me if you'd like any more info.  

Thanks!
