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: |

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

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, |
