I think it's all working now. I still cannot run X as I cannot figure |
| 294 |
out the right wat to set up xorg.conf for the TV Out port but as far |
| 295 |
as the mesa build failure after emerging things a few times and |
| 296 |
finally figuring out what I had to delete, etc., I *think* it's OK |
| 297 |
now. |
| 298 |
|
| 299 |
As far as the bug report went it just didn't click for me. |
| 300 |
Disappointing that after something like 10 months no one has fixed the |
| 301 |
ebuild. |
| 302 |
|
| 303 |
Cheers, |
