Latest attempts:
changed my profile from desktop to desktop/gnome.
rebuilt udev
rebuilt virtual/udev
This fixed the keymap error, but Xorg still failed the same way.
rebuilt xorg-server
rebuilt xorg-drivers
This did nothing too. Again, I'm no developer, just a user. I'm not
that savvy about any of this, or Gentoo in general.
By "rebuilt," I mean emerge -tav <package>. I saw that on a web page
and it seems to be how to uninstall/reinstall stuff.
Looking through the Xorg logfile isn't spelling out the problem to me.
There's no easy way to cut/paste or even dump that whole file here.
I'm contemplating wiping everything and reinstalling Gentoo from
scratch. I'm not sure if that would make a difference. I'll ponder
that for a while.
Adios, DW
