Thank you, Ferris I went through the problem by unmerging all modular xorg modules that I had allready merged once (for some time I had a config error on xdriinfo package so there was some Xorg package allready built) and started the merging process once again. It works now fine.
I have an issue with the keyboard not responding at all under X but I didn't have time to investigate the problem by now. cheers PS : I thought my mail didn't reach the list because of a permanent error I got while posting ... 2006/7/30, Ferris McCormick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

If you look at the ebuild for libxkbfile, you will see dependencies for x11-libs/libX11 and x11-proto/kbproto. You can't tell from your error messages, but, for example, /usr/include/X11/Xlib.h comes from x11-libs/libX11, and /usr/include/X11/Xos.h comes from x11-proto/xproto, x11-proto/xproto is a dependency for pretty much all of xorg-x11-7.x (X-modular). (And by the way, X11/extensions/XKBgeom.h does come from kbproto.) It is not clear from your report how you are building X-modular. Generally, though, something like 'emerge -pv xorg-x11 x11' should show you a huge build in the proper order. What you are seeing should not be possible unless (1) portage thinks all those dependencies are present, but for some reason they are not, or (2) you are building with 'emerge -O ...' for some reason. > thanks a lot > > Jo > > I am pretty sure I know what you are seeing, but how it got that way I cannot guess. Hope this gives you some ideas, though.
