Actually it is possible to use xorg.conf
I'm using mine with :
| Code: | Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
EndSection |
.. just to ignore hall policy files witch i have never bother to set up 
I'm not using any ~arch kernel or any other ~package on my system and it is all up and running, i'm just not using kde or gnome i have a simple slim+fluxbox X system and the nv driver ....

Any chance that xorg abi mismatch detection find its way either in gentoo's update tools like module-rebuild or revdep-rebuild?

I just tried upgrading from X 1.5 to 1.6.5 and my keyboard and mouse are frozen when Gentoo starts gdm at boot.
This backdoor trick was useful so I didn’t have to chroot from a livecd:
| blueflame wrote: | | - Press Alt-SysRq-R after X comes up. This puts the keyboard in raw mode and you should be able to use Ctl-Alt-F1 to get to a console that way. |
geonik250 suggested this command: | geonik250 wrote: |
| Code: | | emerge -1 `qlist -IC x11-drivers` |
|
Which did nothing.
Then I tried what Mike Hunt suggested:
| Mike Hunt wrote: | | Code: | | emerge -1av $(qlist -IC x11-drivers) |
|
This emerged the x11 drivers just fine. Here is where I get stuck:
| Quote: | then re-link xdm and start X | Code: | rc-update add xdm default
/etc/init.d/xdm start |
|
gdm is still loaded. What’s the command to kill gdm? And how do I set it so that Gentoo loads xdm at boot?
Joseph_sys’s notes are not very descriptive but it looks like there is a solution to the problem at hand. Here is what Joseph_sys has to say:
| Joseph_sys wrote: | Here are my notes, try to follow them:
1.)
xorg.conf - should only have section:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "FALSE"
EndSection
2.)
rc-update hal add default
3.)
kernel should have enable:
CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV=y
4.) make conf should have:
INPUT_DEVICES="evdev"
(instead of old: INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse")
USE="... hal dbus..." |
With respect to 1.), should I add a ServerFlags section to my Xorg.conf or should a ServerFlags section replace a section in my xorg.conf like the ServerLayout section?
With respect to 2.), entering rc-update hal add default gave me this output: | Code: | | * rc-update: ‘/etc/init.d/hall’ not found; aborting |
What command was Joseph_sys actually referring to?
With respect to 3.), what’s the grep command to determine if my kernel has CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV enabled?
I understand Joseph’s point 4.). That is, I changed “keyboard mouse” in my make.conf to “evdev”. And I already have hal and dbus set in USE= in my make.conf. Now that my make.conf is modified, I tried re-emerging the x11 drivers which didn't solve the problem.
My Xorg.conf looks like this:
| Code: | Section "ServerLayout"

iamben in #Gentoo on FreeNode said this: | Quote: |
the service you need to start is hald, | Code: | | /etc/init.d/hald start |
. and hald needs to be started before X/gdm |
To do that, iamben recommeds: | Code: | | rc-update add hald default |
And can a moderator please move this thread to Desktop Environments because it deals with X and has less to do with portage?

Are there any other commands I could try?

iamben suggested I try: | Code: | emerge xf86-input-evdev
/etc/init.d/xdm restart |
That did the trick. Problem solved. =D
