Maybe totally unrelated, but when I tried to boot the Ubuntu 10.4 livecd (graphics card = nvidia 8800GTX, GTS240), I got zebra stripes... and, naturally, since it's Ubuntu, no way to kill the x-server. I couldn't switch to a different VT, either... not sure if they've disabled that, too, or if it was just a hard freeze. But as long as nvidia's proprietary drivers work, I'm totally cool with those. |

It's an alpha or beta version, it's normal to have some weird bugs |

Well, it's certainly not a bad thing unless you find it too noisy. Power management still seems to be a TODO item for the nouveau devs, which won't please most laptop owners.
xorg-server-1.8.0 so far seems to be rockstable. |

Just installed xorg-server-1.8.0 yesterday. The only problem I had was I forgot to recompile xf86-video-ati, xf86-input-keyboard, and xf86-input-mouse because of ABI changes.
As soon as the k3b ebuild stops requiring hal, I can get rid of hal completely. |

Any reason why you don't replace mouse and keyboard with evdev? |

What's the advantage of evdev? |

Well, it supports a myriad of input devices without any further configuration. I remember that the mouse driver never supported my Logitech mice without serious button remapping madness. |

Did you have to create any config files in etc to get them working? _________________ Workstation: 5.1 SurroundSound, LIRC remote control; Laptop [IBM-T43]: patched sources, s2disk/ram, fingerprint sensor |

First problem here:
xrand is not working. After recompiling libXrandr and xrandr seems to work again but after restarting isn't working any more. |

I use to use setup two screens. I will try tomorrow putting the config statically in xorg.conf.
EDIT: no way. In other way, i'm ussing intel-2.11 with
[I] x11-apps/xrandr (1.3.2@04/04/10): primitive command line interface to RandR extension
[I] x11-libs/libXrandr (1.3.0@04/04/10): X.Org Xrandr library
are you ussing the same? |

yes. intel-2.11 and xrandr/libXrandr 9999 up to their latest commit (including its deps) seems to be broken. Good for me that I don't actually need that functionality.
