Somehow? Instead of letting us guess what problem you see, please provide the output of emerge which shows the issue.

one more clue from winecfg:

Code:
No protocol specified
Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.


help, wanna play a game.

xhost +local: && winecfg? I don't know if that is enough to get past the chroot. I just use a separate user cleverly named 'wine' and change the permissions on the executable so only that user can run wine programs.

EDIT: You need to run xhost before you chroot. Its in x11-apps/xhost if you don't already have it installed.

thanks, will double check.

strangely this works:

no host

Code:
Xnest -ac :1


in chroot
Code:
export DISPLAY=localhost:1
xterm


Does Xnest add overhead?

glxgears nor glxinfo run:

Code:
glxinfo 
name of display: localhost:1
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

glxgears
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
