Code:
$ uname -v                                 
#1 SMP Sun Aug 2 11:08:54 2015

Its the build time of the running kernel. Its an easy check to see if you are actually running the new kernel or not.

Code:
$ uname -r
4.1.3-hardened-r2
will only change if you have a new kernel version

I see you decided to skip driver installation and are working on your login manager setup now. Can't help with that, I do not use any. Parting this thread. Good luck.

Just try without display manager and without window manager .

If no window manager has been installed a solid black screen will appear. Since this can also be a sign that something is wrong, the {{Package|x11-wm/twm}} and {{Package|x11-terms/xterm}} packages can be installed only to test X.

Maxxx,

The test is does it start twm with three consoles and an analogue clock.
This is what the global defaults do.

A more obvious sign, is that you don't get an error message on the screen after startx.
Your Xorg.0.log will tell too.

If all is well, we can make startx run kde or we can add in the nvidia driver. You choose the next step.

Maxxx,

One thing at a time. The order is not important.
You choose.

Making KDE start may be easiest as there is some doubt about which is the correct nvidia drivers for you.
So to make KDE start when you enter startx ...
Using a graphical login is the very last step.

As root, ensure that startkde is installed. Emerge it if not.

As your normal user, put
Code:
ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session startkde
into ~/.xinitrc
You don't have .xinitrc yet, so it will be a new file.

When Xorg starts now, it will use your .xinitrc in place of the system wide setting and is will run the script startkde.
Test with startx.

KDE will take a lot longer to start than twm as there is more of it.

Maxxx,

That is not a command you can run. The whole startx process is a series of scripts.
Your .xinitrc file replaces the system wide xinitrc as the startx process runs.

You still need the rest of the startx process.
