Subject: [gentoo-user] Met a brick wall migrating to Modular X
Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2006 09:36:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9acccfe50609160936j49fcb037ofc875e0e08cd0891@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I'm trying to follow the HOWTO, but I've got a problem with ATI.
I put 'ati' in VIDEO_CARDS in /etc/make.conf, but it was not picked
up in the actual emerge, and now the driver does not exist, as
reported by startx.

Startx also complains of a missing "speedo" module, but I don't
even know what that is.

In addition, after the build and the revdep-rebuild, an emerge -u
wants to build virtual-x11-7.0-r2, as mentioned in the writeup.
What it didn't mention was that a huge number of KDE packages
are calling for it.  What do I do about this?  Recompile all of KDE
too (presumably by making them all ~x86)?  Something else?

Summary:
   - how do I make an ATI driver
   - how do I make a speedo driver
   - how to get KDE working
