[gentoo-amd64] Is Xorg server built in static form?

[Daniel Iliev <danny@ilievnet.com>]

Hi, everyone

I'm trying not to load "XFree86-DGA" extension as advised in
http://wiki.gentoo-xeffects.org/NVidia, because I have a* nVidia* based
video card. So, my "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" looks like this:

--snip--
Section "Module"
       Load  "extmod"

           SubSection "extmod"
              Option  "omit xfree86-dga"
           EndSubSection

        Load  "dbe"
        Load  "record"
        Load  "xtrap"
        Load  "glx"
        Load  "freetype"
        Load  "type1"
EndSection
--snip---

...but after restarting X my "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" reads:

--snip--
(II) LoadModule: "extmod"
(II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libextmod.so
(II) Module extmod: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 7.1.1, module version = 1.0.0
        Module class: X.Org Server Extension
        ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.3
(II) Loading extension SHAPE
(II) Loading extension MIT-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD
(II) Loading extension BIG-REQUESTS
(II) Loading extension SYNC
(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
(II) Loading extension XC-MISC
(II) Loading extension XFree86-VidModeExtension
(II) Loading extension XFree86-Misc
(II) Loading extension XFree86-DGA
--snip--


Reading "man xorg.conf" I found this: "The Module section is used to
specify which Xorg  server  modules  should be loaded. This section is
ignored when the Xorg server is built in static form."

Am I doing something wrong or xorg-serve is built in static form even
without the "static" use-flag?


emerge -pv xorg-server

Any ideas how to deal with this will be much appreciated.
