Hi,
having updated xorg-server from 1.11.3 to 1.11.4 my machine runs havoc.
xdm or slim start as usual, but having entered my password I get a
blank screen or some colored strips and the only escape is via the
famous SysRq sequence.
But, disabling xdm, logging in via a console and using startx,
Xorg is coming up normally and runs normally.
Of course, I've re-emerged everything in x11-drivers.
Has anybody made a similar experience and has somebody an explanation
for this?
Does xdm leave log files in /var/log? (I don't know) Maybe there is
something old/invalid in /etc/X11 directing xdm to do something stupid.
Did you try re-emerging xdm? And revdep-rebuild, naturally.
kdm was crashing on my box after:
eselect qtgraphicssystem set 2 (setting opengl)
After changing it to native, and without rebuilding anything, kdm is
running fine.
