I have set VIDEO_CARDS="geode" in my make.conf. emerge -pv xorg-drivers shows that geode (and others) are masked. however, since it is actually an x86 system, xf86-video-geode emerges without problems Shouldn't ../../../../arch/x86 be added to hardened/linux/uclibc/x86/parent (like it is done for hardened/linux/x86 ?

The hardened/linux/uclibc do not inherit arch, rather they are very shallow: /usr/portage/profiles/base /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux /usr/portage/profiles/hardened/linux/uclibc /usr/portage/profiles/hardened/linux/uclibc/<arch> This was intentional because 1) profile stacking is very hard to control, 2) what profile/arch means is blurred. Anyhow, this is now unmasked: + 28 May 2013; Anthony G. Basile <blueness@gentoo.org> + hardened/linux/uclibc/x86/use.mask: + Unmask video_cards_geode on hardened/linux/uclibc/x86, bug #458354 +
