use a valid category and package in p.mask, bug 189316
removed stuff about legacy-drivers and nvidia-glx, as cardoe has kicked the first out of portage and the second has been gone more than a year
update nvidia references as nvidia-legacy-drivers is deprecated and will be removed. nvidia-drivers now contains every available version. see Cardoe's message to gentoo-dev for more information.
changed modules-update command to update-modules, per the runtime warning about modules-update being deprecated. weird. seems update-modules used to be the name anyway years ago, see lpi 101 part 2.
added note on mesa-progs, bug 171948
revbumped nvidia-guide for the changes made to it in bug 165844; looks like the original commiter/patch author forgot to do that, and i had just assumed that they'd bumped it when i made a fix a few hours later. apologies; properly bumped now. thanks for YosWink for mentioning it.
fix driver names (get it right; it's nvidia-legacy-drivers, plural), also strip out html entities. no revbump; merely stuff that should have been in the last commit
applying wolf31o2s patch for nvidia-guide.xml #165844
reverting previous change
the great swift@g.o email cleanup, part one
Thorough overhaul of nVidia guide, as nvidia-kernel & glx have been removed from portage awhile ago; several functionality changes have taken place within the nvidia/legacy packages that prevent some errors from occuring, and we don't support the out-of-portage versions anyway.
looks like i forgot to actually commit nvidia-guide for bug 140316. fixed with a proper date bump, sorry
New VDR guide by Norman Golisz added, bug 143456
there's nothing like /dev/nvidia, adding missing asterisks, thanks to kucrut for reporting
Updated modules to build/load for nvidia guide, bug 131684
Changed opengl-update to eselect opengl nvidia. opengl-update will be deprecated in the future, and as it is now, it is only a wrapper that calls the eselect command. fixes bug 132032

Added more nVidia troubleshooting info for bug 117950
