|
|
I've just installed X11 using the Gentoo wiki, but I'm having trouble with startx. I get the error "no screens found" when I run startx, both as a normal user and root.
Startx log: https://pastebin.com/1YbQU0FW
I have an Nvidia GT 1030 GPU, and recently installed nouveau in case that matters.
Edit:
Loading nouveau as a module solved the issue

Code: | [ 918.610] (EE) [drm] Failed to open DRM device for pci:0000:01:00.0: -19
[ 918.610] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory |
Looks like the kernel bits are not yet ready.
Until /dev/dri/card0 and a hi-res console are prepared, Xorg will not work with nouveau nor the backup modesetting driver.
I suggest looking at dmesg for any issues preventing this.
I highly recommend setting CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU=m in the kernel and not built-in (aka * or y) in order to easily load any missing firmware (if any). |
