11 Well, at the time it seems I remember two options for eselect list
12 opengl, but at this point I'm seeing only 1. Anyway, trying to set it
13 to 1 causes the same error message I remember:

44 So the file is there and owned by xorg-server which is in the list to
45 get rebuilt.

54 I made a mistake earlier when I built this new kernel. (Updating from
55 2.6.19 to 2.6.29) I forgot to include ext2 support in the kernel so
56 for a little while I had newer modules than the kernel because I
57 couldn't mount the boot directory to install the kernel. I decide this
58 morning to rebuild the whole kernel, rewrite the modules and get the
59 whole thing consistent. Nothing more than cleaning up an earlier
60 mistake.
61
62 I've just rebuilt python and run python-updater just to make sure that
63 I didn't miss rebuilding something that was required.
64
65 I have no issues at all completely removing xorg-server and everything
66 it loads and rebuilding it from scratch if folks think that might
67 help.
68
69 thanks,
70 Mark
