Description Roger 2004-03-01 14:42:18 UTC
I don't know why these are masked, becuase whenever I do a emerge -UDp world, portage complains about the masked packages being installed.

A quick look over the bugs filed w/ nvidia-5336 builds appear to be completely irrelavent to this version being masked!  The three bugs filed either have work-arounds or appear to be to a specific h/w version -- ie no loss of data, etc.. just lock-ups due to a specific h/w layout for some reason. 

These probably should be unmasked, however, I'm not going to complain that the latest stable be kept to an earlier release unless portage complains again on emerge -UDp world.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.




I'm probably not the only one out there running nvidia-5336 builds either. ;-)
