[gentoo-user] lsmod and startx don't agree
Hello group, I don't remember the exact details but I noticed that any attempt to upgrade x11 revealed that everything under xorg-x11 was blocked. So I did emerge -C xorg-x11 then emerge xorg-x11. So far so good. I ran xorgconfig and passed it the same values as before since the hardware hasn't changed. Now when I run startx it gives: ... (==) Log file: /var/log/Xorg.0.log, Time: Sun Oct 8 21:34:33 2006 (==) Using config file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf (EE) Failed to load module radeon (module does not exist, 0) (EE) No drivers available. Fatal server error: no screens found XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0 after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ not true: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ lsmod Module Size Used by radeon105216 0 drm68884 1 radeon agpgart33904 1 drm ... The modules are there under ../kernel/drivers/char/drm/ just as always. So I'm stumped. -Maxim __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

I don't have an ATI card, but I am pretty sure, that X complains about the missing radeon driver, not the missing kernel module X driver module =/= kernel module you need both. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

At that point you were supposed to follow the migration to modular X guide [1]. The important bits you've missed is setting the VIDEO_CARDS and INPUT_DEVICES variables in /etc/make.conf. [SNIP] (EE) Failed to load module radeon (module does not exist, 0) (EE) No drivers available. That means /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so from x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati is missing. That will be pulled in by x11-base/xorg-x11 if VIDEO_CARDS includes radeon. So set those two variables and run: # emerge -va1 --newuse x11-base/xorg-x11 -- Bo Andresen pgpwTRgu3vvUM.pgp Description: PGP signature
