Aha! xorg-server! All I saw in the docs I had been |
| 18 |
looking at was xorg-x11. |

So I proceeded to emerge xorg-server for real. No more keyboard problems. |
| 37 |
Instead I get the black screen of death. The monitor on light starts |
| 38 |
bliking, indicating it is getting no signal, ctrl-alt-backspace and |
| 39 |
ctrl-alt-delete don't work, and only a hard reset on the box itself |
| 40 |
gets anything going. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
My make.conf specifies VIDEO_CARDS="radeon", even though the automatically |
| 43 |
generated /root/xorg.conf.new specifies |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Driver "ati" |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
in the "Device" section. Could this be a problem? The hardware is a. ATI |
| 48 |
Radeon all-in-wonder card. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
I tried replacing ati by fbdev just to get something working, but it just |
| 51 |
told me it couldn't find fbdev. Presumably this driver was not installed. |
| 52 |
Is the proper way to install this add in fbdev to the make.conf file: |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
VIDEO_CARDS="radeon fbdev" |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
or even |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
VIDEO_CARDS="radeon ati fbdev" |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
and then re-emerge xorg-server? Or is there a more straightforward way? I |
| 61 |
still haven't found a way to browse the list of available packages the way |
| 62 |
I used to do in Debian using aptitude or packages.debian.org. |
