Now X/kde will not start. Everything latches up as soon as I enter |
| 8 |
'startx' at the console. |

I have no ide how to diable 'composite support'. |
| 16 |
When the system was ordered it was specified 1680x1050 on the |
| 17 |
17 inch screen resolution. The few times (sporadically) I did |
| 18 |
get X/kde to launch, it was is 1024x768 mode. I cold not build |
| 19 |
a working xorg.conf file, so I boot up the liveCD 2007.0 can |
| 20 |
copied over the default xorg.conf that at least worked with the |
| 21 |
liveCD. My suspicion is that xorg.conf file, particularly the |
| 22 |
Hortz and Vert ranges: |
| 23 |
HorizSync 28.0 - 96.0 |
| 24 |
VertRefresh 50.0 - 75.0 |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Or maybe it the long list of fonts from the xorg.conf file on the livecd2007.0 |
| 27 |
and I have not installed all of those fonts? |

What I need a very simple xorg.conf for a HP Pavilion dv9000z. |
| 30 |
Googling I found a couple but they did not work and hacking |
| 31 |
xorg.conf files has always seem to be a moving target for me.... |

I eliminated acpid from the startup, it made no difference: |
| 35 |
rc-update del acpid default |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Right now I'm running 'emerge --emptytree world' |
| 38 |
It's on 29/862 for lack of any better ideas. |
