You can toggl= e that to your needs, or you emerge gnome and add gdm to your default runlevel, and forget about startx.

this showed;
/usr/bin/X: symbol lookup error:
/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so: undefined symbol:
GlxInitVisuals2D

Which means that i forget to eselect opengl set 1, though it wasn't
logged to Xorg.0.log (so it was logged to STDOUT, but i couldn't see that as the screen was blank).

Then after fixing that;
which: no keychain in
(/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr= /x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.5.3)
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc: line 63: exec: xterm: not found
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc: line 61: xterm: command not found
xinit: connection to X server lost

So i emerged keychain and xterm and it now works. Of course i didn't need xterm as i'm running gnome, so i could have just kicked that off instead.


The default xinitrc or something starts twm, xterm a= nd xclock or something like that, that's normal behavior for first time= X.org users. You can toggle that to your needs, or you emerge gnome and ad= d gdm to your default runlevel, and forget about startx.
