[SOLVED] GNOME Wont Boot With OpenRC

[AlphaXeos]

I just installed GNOME without systemd

The emerge process went great everything worked.

I set my display manager in xdm to gdm

But when I type openrc to boot GNOME nothing happens.

It just moves me to the next line.

Any help would be appreciated

Are you using https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1022050.html as a guide and using dantrell's overlay?

What are you using exactly to start gdm??

Using
# /etc/init.d/xdm start

or
# service xdm start

?

Have you tested X11 to make sure it works by itself? If you ran startx or xinit, do they work at least?

I ran startx and it worked.

However openrc still fails to boot GNOME

Yes I did follow dantrell's GNOME instructions

[AlphaXeos]

I tried /etc/init.d/xdm start and it said that it already started

[eccerr0r]

Is gdm running actually running or is openrc confused?

ps -ax|grep gdm

If it's not actually running,

/etc/init.d/xdm zap

What if you restart it?

/etc/init.d/xdm restart

I am only giving guesses based on trying to getting other display managers working under openrc, but I've never tried running Gnome under OpenRC (all my Gnome3 boxes are systemd.)
