Hmm. These have been helpful. |

|
11 |
In make.config, I changed to |
12 |
VIDEO_CARDS="r128 vga fbdev vesa" |
13 |
and recompiled xorg-server. |
14 |
|
15 |
I noticed that it had output that I tracked down to some ewarns in the |
16 |
ebuild. But oddly, this package did not create an elog file in |
17 |
/var/log/portage. I wonder why? Anyway, I've made a permanent note |
18 |
of the "qlist -I -C x11-drivers" command for finding installed |
19 |
drivers. |
20 |
|
21 |
I recompiled all drivers, namely |
22 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev |
23 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-joystick |
24 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard |
25 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse |
26 |
x11-drivers/xf86-video-fbdev |
27 |
x11-drivers/xf86-video-r128 |
28 |
x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa |

Now when I try "startx" it still has problems, but I appear to be |
31 |
closer. On screen I see |
32 |

Three things it cannot find: libglx, libdri, and module ati. I don't |
72 |
know about libglx, but according to equery, libdri is owned by |
73 |
xorg-server; so why is it asking for this module if it didn't build |
74 |
with it? And I likewise do not know why it's trying to load "glx" or |
75 |
"ati". |
76 |
|
77 |
equery could not tell me what owns libglx. I could not remember how |
78 |
to use portageq, and the --help message did not help much. |
79 |
Nevertheless, it looks like I'm closer because it now sees a screen. |
80 |
|
81 |
Any more clues out there? |
