Hi there!

This HOWTO is outdated:
http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/GentooEbuilds

x11-base/nouveau-drm from the x11 overlay asks for the 3.2 version of
kernel, but the latest version is 3.1.5.

This advice is also wrong: "These ebuilds do not have any keyword, as
it is usual with cvs/svn/git releases. To be able to install them, you
have to mark them with ** in package.keywords."
Nowadays you should use package.unmask for such purposes.


Cheers!
