I was following the official guide:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml

But I omitted one this command:
echo "x11-base/xorg-server udev" >> /etc/portage/package.use
before doing this:
emerge xorg-server

So. now X doesn't work. I remember that last time that I have installed gentoo with the first command, X worked well.

So, now... how can I reinstall all packages and the dependences of xorg-server?
I have tried to re-do "emerge xorg-server" but the portage install only one package and X doesn't work.

mrfabiolo,

Just ad the line to /etc/portage/package.use and:
Code:
emerge -uavDN --with-bdeps=y @world

and that will detect the new use flag for xorg-server and reemerge it :wink:
