1 Ive used Gentoo for years but never on PPC.
2
3 Im trying to get X up and running on an old G3 (B&W) Mac.
4
5 I have agp and drm enabled in the kernel:
6
7 $ dmesg | grep agp
8 Linux agpgart interface v0.101 (c) Dave Jones
9
10 $ dmesg | grep drm
11 [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
12 [drm] Initialized r128 2.5.0 20030725 on minor 0
13
14 I have built the X server and all libs with dri enabled.
15
16 I have tried three ways to configure: first using xorgconfig; then with an
17 xorg.conf from when this machine ran FC6; and finally with Xorgautoconfig.
18
19 None of these has given me a working config.
20
21 Here's what I see when I run X:
22
23 $ startx
24 xauth: creating new authority file /home/ajai/.serverauth.3527

52 Not sure why it says it can't find any fonts, but Im more concerned with
53 the "end of block range" error.
