lf84217,
what is the output of "ls -l /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers" ? (it should be "intel_drv.so")
I ask because of:
| Code: | | [ 297.226] (EE) Failed to load module "intel" (module does not exist, 0) |
|

Pls try this:
1. Check again if you have only "VIDEO_CARDS="intel" in your make.conf.
2. Do:
| Code: | # emerge --sync
# emerge -1vD mesa xf86-video-intel xorg-server |
3. Check if you have now "intel_drv.so". If yes, do a restart of X11 (or reboot).
Edit: Can you start X11 as user root ? If yes, and you cannnot start as normal user, then we have another problem. In this case, I would like to see both Xorg.log's (good and bad) to see differences. |

P.S.: I forgot to mention  :
Dont worry with these messages:
| Code: | [ 5.485] xf86EnableIO: failed to enable I/O ports 0000-03ff (Function not implemented)
...
[ 5.503] (EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib64/dri/i965_dri.so failed (/usr/lib64/dri/i965_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
[ 5.503] (EE) AIGLX error: unable to load driver i965 |
It is important to get something like these (this is mine):
| Code: | [ 5.872] (II) intel(0): switch to mode 3840x2160@60.0 on DP1 using pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none
[ 5.886] (II) intel(0): Setting screen physical size to 1016 x 571 |
After this xorg-server tries to initialize input. At the end of input usually you will find something like this (1st line is end of my input):
| Code: | [ 6.353] (**) Option "xkb_layout" "de"
[ 7.522] (II) intel(0): EDID vendor "ACR", prod id 1368

Now I have the intel driver, but I'm back to square one.
Initially I could launch startx from root, but not from user.
After some things posters told me to try, I was not able to launch either from root or user (presumably due to the missing intel driver).
Now I am again able to launch from root, but not from user.
I will add this note -- when I try to launch from user, the screen turns black for a half a second, like it's trying to load, and then cuts back to shell, before returning error messages.
Here is the bad log: (cat /home/ryan/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log)
https://pastebin.com/BUn38qDU
And here is the good log (cat var/log/Xorg.0.log)

| Actually these appear to be the same... I'm not sure how to get the log for Xorg as root user? |

No, they arer different ... and ... starting with root you have the correct log. (I expected this result). So, maybe you need use-flag: "suid" when emerging "xorg-server". Have you tried it already ? |

| I have not tried it.. As I understood it, using suid was an outdated or deprecated method.. is this true? |

Yes, using suid is outdated, we have now capabilities, BUT, this use-flag for X11 is "only" a wrapper for graphics driver. |

Ok, next question: How do you start X11 as user ? (pls show us the init script, and all you have in ~/.local/share/xorg)
(Sorry, I am away now until tomorrow). |

P.S.: Have you read https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Xorg ?
=>
| Quote: | X server starts and dies unexpectedly with no errors[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]
Problem: Running startx will start the X server, however it will immediately die without any errors (searching "EE" in /var/log/Xorg.0.log returns no related results).
Cause: an empty .xinitrc file exists for the user who is running the startx command, so the X server is starting, then stopping because there is nothing left for it to do.
Resolution: Either remove the .xinitrc file or define a window manager inside it. |

Those are the three logs there in ~/.local/share/xorg
Not sure where to find my X init script
UPDATE: I created a .xinitrc script in my home directory, and now I can use startx successfully
Thanks for all the help. Still having other issues (audio driver, WIFI, etc), but I will work on those a bit before posting again.
How can I configure X/KDE to start on boot? |

I did for my KDE installation this:
| Code: | # emerge -pvD plasma-meta kdecore-meta
# rc-update add elogind boot
# rc-update add display-manager default
# nano -w /etc/conf.d/display-manager
=> DISPLAYMANAGER="sddm"
# emerge -pvD ark falkon gwenview kate kcalc kmix kompare konversation kwalletmanager marble okteta okular spectacle sweeper
# emerge -pvD kmahjongg kmines
# emerge -pvD spectre-meltdown-checker yt-dlp
# emerge -pvD k3b
# emerge -pvD kdepim-meta
# emerge -pvD kleopatra
# emerge -pvD libreoffice
[...] |
Have fun with Gentoo ! |
