maybe try to rebuild xorg-server
and next time when you get that "black screen" pres ctrl alt f1 to switch to another console then login as root and stop xdm ( /etc/init.d/xdm stop) or kill startx

Please, paste here the output of these two commands:

Code:

lspci | grep VGA
emerge -pv nvidia-drivers


About the error you pasted above:

Code:

(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/fonts//libtype1.so
(EE) Failed to load module "type1" (loader failed, 7)
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/fonts//libfreetype.so
(EE) Failed to load module "freetype" (loader failed, 7)


Use revdep-rebuild to ensure that the ldd links are consistent.

As far as I know, this nptl is no longer optional. It depends on the profile, which also sets the minimun gcc and glibc version. So, unless you have recently migrated from a very very old version of gcc/glibc, and you didn't recompile your whole system, you shouldn't worry about nptl at all.

By the way, in case you are curious, nptl stands for "new linux posix threads". It's just a new threading model that was introduced around glibc (2.4 methinks, though I am spaking from memory and I am not sure). By that time it was optional, but now it's the only model so you don't have to worry about enabling it.

I guess he knows that. I guess he just doesn't know what "nptl" mean. And I doubt that 99% of the people around here knows what nptl is even if they know what it stands for ;)

but my chipset is intel gm965....

I install a backup of my system because I try to delete mesa and emerge but fails....

i think the backup has the same problem...if a try to start with twm for example the firts times the twm starts ok, but (i think) if i emerge fluxbox,jmw or inclusive upgrade python, ithe problem with the screen returns....

sorry. Somehow, I mistaken the thread. I though you had an nvidia chip. Of course, the nvidia-drivers info is not relevant to this thread. I apologize.

I don't quite understand this. If X starts, then the issue should not be driver related. But I never used an intel graphics chip, so I am not familiar with issues that are particular to it. Sorry.

Well, I don't fully understand what do you mean. If you haven't installed gentoolkit, then you need to emerge it. If you have it installed and revdep-rebuild doesn't report anything, then that's not the problem. I can't suggest anything more. Hopefully, someone who is more knowledgeable about intel chips can help here.

Cheers.

yes....but i think the problem is when i emerge something important for the system (or graphics system)...

emerge jmw
emerge fluxbox
emerge python



I installed the backup and I have make firts a revdep-rebuild...at the moment i dont find any problem....i think that was a problem with the libraries...

Thanks...
