Yes, actually I have done each of them, except for actually installing grub 2? I thought that with the chainloader showing up and bringing me to a prompt, that grub 2 was somehow still in the system. Perhaps not? I will be home very soon as I get off work in a few minutes, so I will go ahead and do that. _________________ Thanks,

Logging in as root is a bad idea when using a desktop, so before we start please emerge app-admin/sudo, put your user in the wheel group.
Sudo Wiki
Since Xorg is already emerged, we need to add some tools:
Code: | emerge twm xterm xclock
startx |
What happened In case nothing happens look at the Gentoo: XOrg/Configuration Wiki
If the answer is correct:
Code: | nano -w/etc/conf.d/xdm
DISPLAYMANAGER=kdm
(Save)
nano -w /etc/env.d/90xsession
XSESSION=KDE-4
(Save)
rc-update add xdm default
reboot |
You should see a KDE login window. If you do we will add grub 2 _________________ The Birth and Growth of Science is the Death and Atrophy of Art -- Unknown

Doing startx, after all that, simply put me back into the 3 xterm window mode. So I looked at the link you provided and followed the suggestions to the point of emerging xorg-server. The next step after doing emerge @x11 module-rebuild, is:
Code: | root # env-update
root # source /etc/profile |
And then I will follow your next instructions. _________________ Thanks,

No KDE login window. Am at the gentux login:
Does not matter whether I login as root or my user, I still have the 3 xterm windows.
EDIT:**Hold the fort! I had forgotten the env update and the source etc/profile. This time when I rebooted I still came to the command line login, but then logging and doing startx, I got the gui desktop. I was able to configure my dual monitor setup.** _________________ Thanks,

Yes, that part was done. Does it need to be done again? _________________ Thanks,

Ok, I had messed up and left DISPLAYMANAGER=XDM. Changed it to KDM and did the restart. KDM is setup. Can't reboot right now because I have Firefox emerging and it is taking some time. As soon as that finishes, I will reboot to see what happens. But Firefox is doing version 17.0.9 and I know that current version is 25.0. I will need to revisit some threads to remember how to get that to install correctly. _________________ Thanks,
Mark

Thank you for the tip there. I have, however, apparently gone two steps back. I rebooted after the Firefox emerge and now I don't get a chance to login at all. It comes to a login prompt and before I can even type a user name, it goes black with a blinking cursor in the upper left corner and all I can do is Ctrl-Alt-Del to reboot once more. It doesn't matter whether I choose the Gentoo or the chainloader, it does the same thing.
I did emerge the nvidia-drivers because my card is an Nvidia. It installed version 308.104 which was OK I figured, but I don't think that is what has caused the problem here.
Edit: Actually, I just realized that I had two screens apparently. I pressed Alt-F2 and it showed me the login prompt so I logged in. When I do startx, I see a red entry that failed to load Nvidia kernel module and then /dev/nvidiactl does not exist. I did emerge xorg-server again, but that did nothing. Also noticed:
Code: | xauth: file /root/.serverauth.19997 does not exist |
As a matter of fact, when I
and then
I see all the directories. But when I
there is nothing at all in there. Is this normal? _________________ Thanks,
Mark

sure, /root is a home directory for user "root". If you (as root) did not put anything there, there is nothing there but some . (dot) files |

So that makes sense about root. Anyway, modprobe nvidia returns:
Code: | ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': No such device |
and
Code: | emerge nvidia-drivers |
came back with

And so, looks like its time to reconfigure the kernel to eliminate the conflict. I'll post back when this completes. _________________ Thanks,

Yes, you should eliminate nvidiafb frame buffer for the the kernel. Actually binaary nvidia says that it doesn't like any framebuffers, so you may want to eliminated all of them. Although I still use vesafb with nvidia drivers and has not run into problems yet. |

Eliminated nvidiafb but that did not help. This time it ran emerge nvidia-drivers, but at the end it unloaded the module. It also found no screens.

And modprobe nvidia still cannot insert 'nvidua': No such device. I am obviously 'not getting it'.
/dev/nvidiactl still does not exist. _________________ Thanks,

So, for some reason I just decided to reboot after adding my user to the audio, cdrom, wheel, usb, and video groups. And I have booted straight into my KDE gui. True it showed an error about Consolekit
Code: | Warning: Cannot open ColsoleKit session: Unable to open session:Failedto connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or diredtory. |
I did not have to login through the prompt. It came up to the graphical login instead. That's a first. I'm sure there must be more cleaning up to do, but I will have to study on that. Plus it said that Root logins are not allowed. I've never seen that before. Must be something new.
Thanks guys. And modprobe nvidia still shows nothing. I am puzzled, very puzzled. I am going to try another reboot just to see if it sticks. _________________ Thanks,
Mark

What do you mean by that ? It does not suppose to show anything if module is loaded correctly.
The root logins are not allowed is probably ConsoleKit related |

I was not sure of that, but that sounds like it was loaded correctly. And before it showed an error about not being found, so that's good. I am not very knowledgeable when it commands to linux commands and what they are supposed to show. I am forced to live in a Windows world at work, my cross to bear. But when I no longer have to put up with that, you can bet I'll be sticking with Gentoo. I really like it because it can be tailored to fit just what I need.
Now I just have to get my CDRom and USB devices working. But I will visit other topics to dig into those issues.
I think I may need to emerge grub:2 again, just to be sure. I have been able to use the chainloader for that as well as the grub 0.97, so that remains the last thing in this area.
Thanks, and if there any other suggestions, I am more than glad to follow up. For now I will go back to the migration guide and hope it takes care of things. _________________ Thanks,
Mark

Right, just as a general info, if you want to see the results of kernel module insersion, look at the output of 'dmesg'. (if you 'modprobe nvidia' and do dmesg right after, then the end of the output will have info about nvidia initialization). Also 'cat /proc/modules' is useful to see all succesfully loaded kernel modules.
One should also remember that nvidia kernel module, and nvidia graphics module (loaded by X and logged in /var/log/Xorg.0.log) are two separate things.
If you want to boot for some debugging purposes into console and not straight into GUI, remove /etc/init.d/xdm from default level ( 'rc-update del xdm default') |

You need to make sure the consolekit and dbus USE flags are enabled in KDE
Code: | emerge ufed
eselect profile list
eselect profile set 6 <-- Should be KDE
ufed
emerge -e system && emerge -e world |
This should automatically set the dbus and consolekit USE Flag. The ufed command should verify that. _________________ The Birth and Growth of Science is the Death and Atrophy of Art -- Unknown

Ok the Firefox tip worked great. It gave me version 24.0, guess 25 hasn't been packaged yet for Gentoo.
@dmpogo: Also, the dmesg following modprobe nvidia pulls up some very interesting info. And is there some way I can pull the text out of dmesg as well as cat /proc/modules so that I can post when needed?
Am running Code: | emerge -e system && emerge -e world |
That's going to take a while to finish.
Btw, the ufed is really a neat tool. I never knew about that one. Thanks, eyoung100. _________________ Thanks,

both 'dmesg' and 'cat' output info into stdout (standard output), so simple redirect will do
Code: |
dmesg > yourfilename
cat /proc/modules > otherfilename

To add to dmpogo's post. There is also a tool named wgetpaste that's used in conjunction with the pipe operator as in:
Code: | wgetpaste | <command> | as in
then post the URL here. _________________ The Birth and Growth of Science is the Death and Atrophy of Art -- Unknown

@dmpogo: That's extremely useful to know.
And @eyoung100: I have the wgetpaste and I used it to copy and paste here, but I did not know that it would do a <command> as well. Also a great piece of information.
Just looked at the last emerge screen, going on 300 or 466 packages. Should be done by the time I get home from work. I'll do a reboot then and see if I still get the ConsoleKit message.
Thanks.
11/12/13 - Late edit post: Must have read something wrong. It is still running and saying 654 of 873. Now I don't have any idea of when it will complete. _________________ Thanks,
