Description Marc Schiffbauer gentoo-dev 2011-09-14 13:59:43 UTC 
According to the changelog in the url that driver is compatible with the ABI change introduced in 1.11

Would you mind to add that to the tree?

It's actually a typo. You can check with Nvidia themselves. It supported the beta ABI but not the final one. You'll have tons of graphics bugs and errors.

I feel like I've made this same comment and closed out multiple times.. So who am I to stop people from having terrible graphics support, so its added to the tree.
