After xorg-server installed, I follow the description in the handbook using 
Xorg -configre. Unfortunately , it failed . The message is below:

Did you try to build a kernel without network facilities?

What's that meaning? I built kernel with necessary drivers, of course I have a work-fine networkafter Gentoo built up . Does it have anything to do with X ?

What video card do you have? Did you build the drivers for it?

Xorg is complaining that it couldn't open IPv6 sockets. Xorg uses
sockets to handle the clients, that's what makes it work with remote
clients. I'd guess that you tried to built a no-network box, but Xorg
need sockets. It doesn't make much sense in a Gentoo world, but it was
worth trying.

Another possibility is that you built your kernel without IPv6
support, but forgot to disable the ipv6 USE flag.
