Description Arnaud Vrac 2004-12-30 15:54:58 UTC 
All files in /usr/X11R6/lib have been moved to /usr/lib since the xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4 release. nvidia-glx files should be moved as well. You have to manually copy the files to /usr/lib/modules otherwise to get glx working.

Use: openg-update nvidia
emerge >=x11-base/opengl-update-2.0_pre4
Comment 2 Arnaud Vrac 2004-12-30 16:51:34 UTC 
That won't change anything.
X complains about a missing module:

(EE) Failed to load module "nvidia"
(Module doesn't exist,0)
(EE) No drivers avaiable 

That's because the driver nvidia_drv.o is still in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers. It should be in /usr/lib/modules/drivers.

Maybe this is an amd64 bug since only a symlink /usr/X11R6/lib64 -> ../lib64 is created. There should be /usr/X11R6/lib -> ../lib too, am i wrong ?

Fixed in cvs for media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.6629-r1

You were right, sorry :)
