1 Im currently running Gentoo on an Athlon 4600+ dual core with 4Gig
2 ram, nVidia 7600GS video card and USB keyboard and Trackman Wheel
3 trackball. I just emerged xorg-server 1.4.0.90-r3 and when I try to
4 startx I get an initialization screen with a pointer that fails to
5 move. Afterwards I crtl-alt-backspace it shows an error message as
6 follows:
