Hmm. These have been helpful. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
In make.config, I changed to |
| 12 |
VIDEO_CARDS="r128 vga fbdev vesa" |
| 13 |
and recompiled xorg-server. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I noticed that it had output that I tracked down to some ewarns in the |
| 16 |
ebuild. But oddly, this package did not create an elog file in |
| 17 |
/var/log/portage. I wonder why? Anyway, I've made a permanent note |
| 18 |
of the "qlist -I -C x11-drivers" command for finding installed |
| 19 |
drivers. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
I recompiled all drivers, namely |
| 22 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev |
| 23 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-joystick |
| 24 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard |
| 25 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse |
| 26 |
x11-drivers/xf86-video-fbdev |
| 27 |
x11-drivers/xf86-video-r128 |
| 28 |
x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa |

Now when I try "startx" it still has problems, but I appear to be |
| 31 |
closer. On screen I see |

Three things it cannot find: libglx, libdri, and module ati. I don't |
| 72 |
know about libglx, but according to equery, libdri is owned by |
| 73 |
xorg-server; so why is it asking for this module if it didn't build |
| 74 |
with it? And I likewise do not know why it's trying to load "glx" or |
| 75 |
"ati". |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
equery could not tell me what owns libglx. I could not remember how |
| 78 |
to use portageq, and the --help message did not help much. |
| 79 |
Nevertheless, it looks like I'm closer because it now sees a screen. |

|
| 81 |
Any more clues out there? |
