Nope, unmerged it and deleted it from make.conf, then when I emerged |
| 13 |
xf86-video-ati and evdev all other drivers (mouse, keyboard, |
| 14 |
synaptics) were brought in as well. |

I tried the startx trick. I recall that this would launch my WM |
| 28 |
(fluxbox), but now all I get is an X session with twm! Has something |
| 29 |
changed with /etc/rc.conf? Where should I specify fluxbox? |

No /var/log/xdm.log or other errors were there this time. Trying to |
| 32 |
start xdm and I keep getting the same old errors: |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server (:0.0) |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
and |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
(EE) XKB: No components provided for device Virtual core keyboard. |

back up otherwise I would roll back this bad experience. |
