After upgrading to nvidia-drivers-190.53, libvdpau_nvidia.so was removed and vdpauinfo produces: # vdpauinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0 Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Error creating VDPAU device: 1 along with mplayer, that also tries to use the vdpau driver. Downgrading to ver 190.42-r3 solves the problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Upgrade to x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.53
(Local bump I presume ? Same issue here). According to upstream Changelog [1], structure of workdir has changed. One can use a simple patch to make ebuild install and merge libvdpau_nvidia.so.* again, but their might be a need of more work on ebuild side. --- nvidia-drivers-190.42-r3.ebuild 2009-11-12 20:36:50.000000000 +0100 +++ nvidia-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.53.ebuild 2009-12-17 11:46:30.805670430 +0100 @@ -424,8 +422,8 @@ fi #vdpau - if [[ -f ${libdir}/libvdpau_nvidia.so.${sover} ]]; then - dolib.so ${libdir}/libvdpau_nvidia.so.${sover} + if [[ -f ${libdir}/vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so.${sover} ]]; then + dolib.so ${libdir}/vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so.${sover} dosym libvdpau_nvidia.so.${sover} /usr/${inslibdir}/libvdpau_nvidia.so fi [1]http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=2141387
