1 Hi, everyone
2
3 I'm trying not to load "XFree86-DGA" extension as advised in
4 http://wiki.gentoo-xeffects.org/NVidia, because I have a* nVidia* based
5 video card. So, my "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" looks like this:
6
7 --snip--
8 Section "Module"
9 Load "extmod"
10
11 SubSection "extmod"
12 Option "omit xfree86-dga"
13 EndSubSection
14
15 Load "dbe"
16 Load "record"
17 Load "xtrap"
18 Load "glx"
19 Load "freetype"
20 Load "type1"
21 EndSection
22 --snip---
23
24 ...but after restarting X my "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" reads:
25
26 --snip--
27 (II) LoadModule: "extmod"
28 (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libextmod.so
29 (II) Module extmod: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
30 compiled for 7.1.1, module version = 1.0.0
31 Module class: X.Org Server Extension
32 ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.3
33 (II) Loading extension SHAPE
34 (II) Loading extension MIT-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD
35 (II) Loading extension BIG-REQUESTS
36 (II) Loading extension SYNC
37 (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
38 (II) Loading extension XC-MISC
39 (II) Loading extension XFree86-VidModeExtension
40 (II) Loading extension XFree86-Misc
41 (II) Loading extension XFree86-DGA
42 --snip--
43
44
45 Reading "man xorg.conf" I found this: "The Module section is used to
46 specify which Xorg server modules should be loaded. This section is
47 ignored when the Xorg server is built in static form."
48
49 Am I doing something wrong or xorg-serve is built in static form even
50 without the "static" use-flag?
51
52
53 emerge -pv xorg-server
54
55 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
