This seems like a newb question. I've been using my Gentoo for a few years |
| 2 |
now, and since X/KDE/Gnome/etc. never seemed to be quite stable, I always |
| 3 |
booted into command lines and then manually 'startx' JICSH. |

|

But I find myself almost always doing that these days, so I suppose it's |
| 6 |
time to make the plunge so that X starts when I boot up. I'm still a bit |
| 7 |
worried about hibernation (which I don't have working anyways - yet), I |
| 8 |
recall there were issues with nvidia and suspending to HD/RAM if you were in |
| 9 |
X. That could be old news? |

Anyways, I can't get this to work. When I boot up, the screen is BLACK. Not |
| 12 |
just back-lit black, but like there's no power black. If I CTRL+ALT+1, I get |
| 13 |
to a shell prompt. |
