I'm sitting here looking at my emerge xfree pass trought my eyes and I'm wondeing: can i stop emerge from compiling other drivers from nv?
Can i disable anything else during compile time to make it faster and not so boated?

Thanks. Lucas.

i havn't tried this but i should work.

open up /usr/portage/x11-base/xfree/xfree-4.2.0-r12.ebuild in your favorite editor. then right afterthis:

Code:
echo "#define XVendorString \"Gentoo Linux (XFree86 ${PV}, revision ${PR})\"" \
        >> config/cf/host.def


put this:
Code:
echo "#define XF86CardDrivers nv" >> config/cf/host.def
echo "#define BuildXF86DRM NO" >> config/cf/host.def


and mabey echo these in there too:
Code:

#define XnestServer NO
#define XVirtualFramebufferServer NO
#define XprtServer NO


if you try it, let us know if it works :-)
