Thanks, Michael - I generally turn to google first. It's been a tough
day, and I appreciate you pointing this out to me.
I ran into another snag, this time with x11-libs/libXext-1.0.4 - it

It sounds to me like you are worming your way into a deeper hole.
Just FYI, I went through the libxcb upgrade procedure, am running the
libxcb 1.4 and latest X server, etc. and everything is working just
fine.

Now I run into a bit of a problem:
libX11-1.1.5 fails when compiled :-(
I attached a build.log for this package... Can anyone tell me if this
is fixable? Maybe some other
Sorry, I don't tinker around with gentoo much, mostly just user :-)
I got around this block so far: also masked >=x11-libs/libXext-1.0.5,
>=x11-libs/libX11-1.2, in addition to libxcb 1.4. Reading ebuilds
really helps! ha.
I cleared everything X related from my box, and it is still alive and well :-)
Now, as I was explaining in my previous thread, I would like to
re-install X and all related apps, but forcing the older libxcb
version. After I upgraded to libxcb 1.4 a few days ago, my X was
unstable and kept crashin
I've been having some issues myself (mythtv manages to mess up my screen
royally, I need to switch to a text virtual console and back to X to
make the screen legible after viewing a TV-recording in myth). I just
noticed that the version of the headers for xcb do not match the version
on libxcb

I am flexible on acroread, but acroread doesn't crash X - just gets a

Alright, I am now running 2.6.30-gentoo-r6 kernel, but I still have
the same issue.
I think it's a scroll-bar that triggers it. If I drag a scrollbar
down with my mouse and then run it back up, there

Well, I am running nvidia-drivers-180.60, and versions 185 and 190 are
masked by ~x86. Same for the xorg-server-1.6.4. So the only thing I
could do really is to update the kernel...
But xorg-server-1.5 was perfectly stable for me, so I don't see how
kernel upgrade would be helpful here,

I am running the xorg-server-1.6, to which I just upgraded, and kernel
2.6.27-gentoo-r8, and I am having an issue with the server crashing
whenever I try to drag the scroll bar within Mathematica - which never
happened to me before with previous xorg-servers, and I use
Mathematica extensively. So
