startx starts and X session and runs~/.xinitrc, it does not start kdm. If |

This is a message from portage, nothing to do with X, although it should |

All that does is list the drivers you have installed, you may need to |

re-emerge them after an update to xorg-server |

emerge -1a $(qlist -I -C x11-drivers) |
