In a haste to get the latest gnome-light packages, I ran |
2 |
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -Duva world without thinking about the |
3 |
consequences and ended up running an 'unmasked' system. |
4 |
Now, this is okay. I'll just wait till said packages go into the stable |
5 |
depository or downgrade or something. |

In the meanwhile, it'd be really grand if I could use my 2nd screen. |
8 |
Running etc-update and scrolling through the 50 or so new conf files, I was |
9 |
careful enough not to have my xorg.conf overwritten; one moment it's |
10 |
working, a quick reboot later (revealing a whole bunch of other cock-ups I |
11 |
might spend another email detailing) and only my main screen starts up. |
12 |
|
13 |
Now, this is baffling. Opening my xorg.conf shows me my xinerama, dual |
14 |
screen setup clearly detailed the way I like it. Nothing has changed - yet |
15 |
no errors show up when starting X, no confusing flickers of the 2nd monitor, |
16 |
no hardwarming hard crashes, nothing. It's as if it just forgot all about |
17 |
that silly mess and went on with it's life, making me use my main screen as |
18 |
if nothing ever happened. |

Any suggestions or places I should look in? |

(yes, xinerama is a use flag I use) |
