As a fix for bug #319331 (referencing upstream bug http://crbug.com/44544), gpu rendering has been unconditionally disabled in the ebuild. However, in the upstream bug it is specified that there is a requirement on nvidia-drivers >=190 to fix the reported build breakage. I did not actually try to compile chromium with -Denable_gpu=1, but it seems that a 'opengl' use-flag + a block on <nvidia-drivers-190 should be added to give the opportunity to enable such rendering mode. Reproducible: Always
Indeed, it builds fine with nvidia-drivers-256.35 and a modified ebuild which has -Denable_gpu=1
Okay, I'd like to get some reports from other people running nvidia-drivers with various versions before I change the ebuilds.
I have been building chromium-9999 with -Denable_gpu=1 and nvidia-drivers-195.x for some time. I do not think I have ever run a build with it disabled (except for bug 330463). My overlay has always had it turned on.
No problem with 6.0.490.1 which has enable_gpu by default and nvidia-drivers-195.36.31. x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-195.36.31 was built with the following: USE="acpi gtk (multilib) -custom-cflags" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1"
More recent ebuilds enable gpu, but I'll keep this bug open for a while to get more info. If you are using nvidia-drivers, please post here.
What additional info do you need? If needed, I can try to recompile exact version 6.0.472.33 with GPU enabled with nvidia 190 and 195 drivers. Currently, I have no problem with recent ebuilds and nvidia-drivers 195.

I think you can just use the latest 7.x version. I think I'd be mostly interested in nvidia drivers 185 results, because they are marked stable. However, more data about 190 is also useful. > Currently, I have no problem with recent ebuilds and nvidia-drivers 195. Great, also noted your earlier comment #4.

Oddly, I can't reproduce the build failure with nvidia-drivers-185.18.36-r1 and both chromium-6.0.472.51 / chromium-7.0.503.1. Of course, I have modified chromium-6.0.472.51 to re-enable gpu flag.

Thank you for all the comments, I think the bug can now be closed.
