Get it while it's hot! (will be in next equo release).

Works fine, big thanks!
The only thing is, it switched the graphics from ati to xorg-x11, so I had to switch it back...
Here's the progress of the script: http://sabayon.pastebin.com/05pa7LLw

Switching to Graphics-Card missing in the wiki. After use this instructions, automatically switch to xorg-x11. So I have nvidia and use manually to switch on them.

Code: Select all

eselect opengl list <show where the link pointed, in this case number 3 xorg-x11>
eselect opengl set <follow number of your graphics-card>
