To save some time here, the dhcp and other (as far as I know) modules needed are compiled into the kernel. The error below only happened after updating my xorg.conf file! But it happens at boot, not when starting X!
Quote:
Resource Conflict - PCI Network Controller in slot 03
Bus:01 Device 0A Function 00
then it says to press 'F1' to make changes to the BIOS or 'F2' to continue.

The info brought up in 'F1' is not very informative, it just says what is enabled for each PCI slot, does not list the hardware or service associated with each slot or what the conflict is, and I don't see any related settings I can change. So I press 'F2' to continue with bootup and, after a long delay while the system attempts to start eth0 and dhcp, I get:

Error: Problem starting services
"netmount" was not started
and I can confirm there is no networking by trying to access a webpage with links.

I could connect to the Internet fine before, and network support was compiled into the kernel (because I am online a lot, I did not do them as modules). I did rebuild the toolchain ("emerge -e system && emerge -e system && emerge -e world && emerge -e world"), but I did not recompile the kernel, got it right the first time (as far as I know).

The reason I suspect my new xorg.conf *may* have something to do with it is because of this line, which may or may not be a new line (I did this with "xorg -config" and "xorgcfg -textmode", but since I had a freezing-on-logout KDE and KDE resolution problems before, I did not save the old, crappy xorg.conf file and I don't know if this line was there before I changed my config)...plus X is not started on boot. But anyway, here's the line in the card section from my xorg.conf
Code:
BusID       "PCI:0:1:0"
and the warnings in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
Code:
(WW) Open APM failed (/dev/apm_bios) (No such file or directory)
...
(WW) I810(0): xf86AllocateGARTMemory: allocation of 1024 pages failed(Cannot allocate memory)
...
Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/CID/, removing from list



Additional info:

dmesg | grep eth0 output:
Code:

[EDIT]This is strange...the same behavior since I commented the BUS ID line in xorg.conf, but some changes in the above results, which I fixed above.
For "eth0":
* "UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST" has changed to " BROADCAST MULTICAST"
* RX "dropped:4294967286" has changed to "dropped:4294967293"
For "lo":
* RX "packets:0" has changed to "packets:6"
* TX "packets:0" has changed to "packets:6"
* "RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)" has changed to "RX bytes:300 (300.0 b)"
* "TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)" has changed to "TX bytes:300 (300.0 b)"[/EDIT]

Also, I forgot to mention, I get an error dialogue box stating that there is a problem with the sound server and KDE will start without initializing it, because "device /dev/dsp cannot be opened". Again, I had sound before I redid my xorg.conf file. I haven't made any other changes to the system, I haven't even emerged anything since I rebuilt the tool chain, and I had sound after that. What the heck in my xorg.conf file could cause KDE to not be able to initalize the sound server or open /dev/dsp???

(BTW, I changed xorg.conf since my last post, commenting BUSID line for the video card because I understand after reading the comments in someone else's config file that it is usually only used if you have multiple video devices, otherwise it is commented out...that did not help the PCI in slot 3 error I get when the system starts hardware detection on boot. I'll fix the above file to reflect this change.)

Is there any additional info you need, or any additional tools I should run, that would help someone help me?
