i'm not running any linux-dri* port at all since all of them come with their own libGL which i don't need because the nvidia driver provides that library. all i need is libGLU.so (linux version) because the nvidia driver doesn't supply that library. funny thing is that only the linux-dri* ports come with libGL.so. the native dri-* port doesn't include libGL.so and thus isn't colliding with the nvidia drivers. your suggestion sounds good. if i understood you correctly you want to change the ports like this: - have a linux_dri port without libGL* - create a linux_libGL port - remove the linux-libGLU* ports it would be nice if the linux_dri would feature some options which let's you chose which files you want to have installed. i personally don't need the Xorg modules or the binaries which come with the port. only libGLU.so. so how about the following options: xorg graphic card modules libglut libglade libexpat libdrm libGLU binaries cheers.
