 |
|
Hello,
yesterday I installed for the first time Gentoo on a Sony Vaio PCG-971M, by following this manual http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml: now I'm having some troubles.
This is what's happend when I try to "emerge xorg-x11" (follows only the stderr 2> output):
I understand I have to made changes to my USE variable, but which changes?
| Code: |
The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
#required by x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware-12.0.2, required by x11-base/xorg-drivers-1.12[video_cards_vmware], required by x11-base/xorg-server-1.12.2[xorg], required by x11-drivers/xf86-video-dummy-0.3.5-r1
=media-libs/mesa-8.0.4-r1 xa
#required by x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware-12.0.2, required by x11-base/xorg-drivers-1.12[video_cards_vmware], required by x11-base/xorg-server-1.12.2[xorg], required by x11-drivers/xf86-video-dummy-0.3.5-r1
=x11-libs/libdrm-2.4.33 libkms
Use --autounmask-write to write changes to config files (honoring CONFIG_PROTECT).
|
Edit: actually my USE variable is the same of the one reported in the manual:
USE="-gtk -gnome qt4 kde dvd alsa cdr"
Thanks |

leonixyz,
Whay are you trying to install x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware?
That video driver is only useful inside a vmwae virtual machine, or are you installing Gentoo inside vmware on a Vaio?
Please post the output of and the output of
wgetpaste is your friend.

I installed on a Vaio.
Can't resolve this problem 
I don't know much about my USE variable... is it right? should I add/subtract some features? |

You should add to your | Code: | /etc/gentoo/make.conf
or
/etc/make.conf |
this line: | Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="radeon" |
without this portage trys to emerge all possible display drivers, including the VMWARE-xorg-driver.
Check http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml

leonixyz,
| Code: | | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x (rev 64) |
I think thats mach64, not radeon. Radeon covers all the ATI cards except r128 and mach64
Your | Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="fbdev glint intel mach64 mga neomagic nouveau nv r128 radeon savage sis tdfx trident vesa via vmware dummy v4l" |
You certainly don't need | Code: | | glint intel mga neomagic nouveau nv avage sis tdfx trident via vmware dummy |
The others are "mostly harmless". vesa is a good fallback a it works with every video card since 1998.

Thank you very much for helping me ...
One thing more: I don't want to try without being sure... (I reinstalled Gentoo 4 times in the last 3 days)
to do that should I put this line in /etc/make.conf?
| Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="mach64 -glint -intel -mga -neomagic -nouveau -nv -avage -sis -tdfx -trident -via -vmware -dummy" |
or this one, without mach64?
| Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="-glint -intel -mga -neomagic -nouveau -nv -avage -sis -tdfx -trident -via -vmware -dummy" |
or this last one?
| Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="mach64" |

leonixyz,
There is no need to reinstall to fix this sort of thing. You boot the liveCD/USB/DVD mount your existing filesystems, don't forget /proc and /dev then do the chroot steps.
You are now back in the chroot like you had never left.
It takes real talent to make such a mess of Gentoo that you need to reinstall.
Put | Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="mach64 vesa" |
because If I have it wrong and mach64 is not best driver for your video card, vesa will at least get you a picture.

Thank you very very much!
now worked!
...
but now when I try to configure xorg.conf I'm going having another problem
# X -configure:
| Code: | | Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices. Configuration failed. Server terminated with error (2). |
# xorgconfig:
| Code: | | -bash: xorgconfig: command not found |
# xorgcfg:
| Code: | | -bash: xorgcfg: command not found |
is this related? or shoul I open another post? |

leonixyz,
Its related. No xorg.conf is required if you are happy with the default settings that are detected by udev and Xorg between them.
They don't detect your keyboard layout very well, so you need a tiny xorg.conf to fix that.
What doesnt work the way you would like in Xorg?
Make friends with wgetpaste and post your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
That file tells what Xorg actually did when it started.

leonixyz,
startx worked fine. It used the vesa video driver, which it not what I expected but the log confirms that mach64 is the right driver.
Heres what happened ...
Xorg started, found noting to do so it quit normally. You either don't have a Window Manager installed yet, or don't has a ~/.xinitrc file to point xorg to your Window manager.
For testing do | Code: | | emerge -1 twm xterm xclock |
Now startx. twm is what Xorg tries to start when no other window manager is defined but Gentoo does not install it unless you ask.
