33 So equery belongs --early-out /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20opengl.conf doesn't
34 show anything but I am not sure this is the right way to search for the
35 owner.
36 I do edit it every time X won't start. Then X does start. But after
37 updating and rebooting it has the old wrong line again.
38 My make.conf has VIDEO_CARDS="radeon amdgpu" in it.
