I am becoming confused about how Portage 2.1.1 interacts with the xorg-x11 ebuild.

I followed the instructions to migrate to Xorg 7.0 a couple of months ago. I have set in /etc/make.conf:

INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse synaptics"
VIDEO_CARDS="radeon vesa fbdev"

Now when I "emerge -puv world", I am told that it wants to emerge both xorg-x11 and xorg-server. Under xorg-server, it lists the correct input devices and video cards. But under xorg-x11, it seems to indicate that I have selected no input devices or video cards. Is this normal?

(By the way, what do the percentage signs and asterisks mean on the use flags??)

Thanks,
Hans

Moved from Portage & Programming to Desktop Environments.
xorg is desktop stuff, so moved here.
