X server?


Hello All!

I finally got most of kernal errors fixed. I went about to install the X server and try to move beyond to the gui environment.

xorgconfigure is not present. I wrote my own xorg.conf file I get the following errors: [/code]Xauth - shared library can't be found libxau.so.6
xinit - shared library can't be found libxkbfile.so.6[/code]

I'm not overly familiar with how gentoo handles its
xpackages ... are the things actually installed?

You can have a look around with locate (if it's
installed and updatedb has been run) or
find / -iname <name>


Cheers,
Tink

Make sure you have this for the keyboard;

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection .:The driver part the other for your keyboard:.
