The VIDEO_CARDS make.conf setting is used to define what graphics support is enabled on your system. It is generally used only by packages that directly implement graphics support, such as media-libs/mesa and a few others. To set VIDEO_CARDS, set it in /etc/make.conf, separating each value with a space, as follows:

   /etc/make.conf (bash source code)
VIDEO_CARDS="intel i965 i915"

Starting with Funtoo Linux 1.4, VIDEO_CARDS settings work a bit differently than in Gentoo and are documented here. Also note that it is possible to have VIDEO_CARDS set for you via use of a Funtoo profile mix-in.
