Hi,
I'm sure I'm missing something here but can't quite pinpoint it.
I want to install x11-drm and compare it to the drm in the mainline
2.6.19-suspend2-r1 kernel. I've disabled drm in my kernel config as
required, and emerge x11-drm fails with this error:

Hello,
I recently switched to ~x86 and with it to xorg 7.x. I saw that the xkb
syntax changed, so I updated it accordingly,
but now I can't switch to VT's anymore. I searched google but all the
solutions didn't apply to me, since they hadn't
updated their xorg.conf. I use diff. keyboard mapping

Gentoo - being different as it is - a metadistro, is by far the most
easy to mantain and support installs I've ever used. Most, if not all,
problems usually exist because some companies still relay in a single

So I've been trying to get the ati-drivers to work. Thi
I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but upgraded to
gnome-2.16, which pulled in gnome-screensaver etc.
thing is, when I view movies using totem in fullscreen, it will still

Is anyone else experiencing this???
