Helllo,

I have installed xorg-server on a mac G5 (ppc64, 32 bit userland).  I
configured the kernel for xorg according to the gentoo xorg howto.
However, the server will not start:

(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Thu Jan 26 08:57:27 2012
(==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
(EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist, 0)
(II) [KMS] Kernel modesetting enabled.
xinit: connection to X server lost

xorg-server was built using these use flags:

[ebuild   R    ] x11-base/xorg-server-1.10.4-r1  USE="ipv6 nptl udev
xorg -dmx -doc -kdrive -minimal -static-libs -tslib -xnest -xvfb" 0 kB

This is the kernel:

Linux perthite 2.6.39-gentoo-r3 #7 SMP Thu Jan 26 11:51:42 NST 2012
ppc64 PPC970FX, altivec supported PowerMac7,3 GNU/Linux

I have also noticed that I am not able to switch between virtual
terminals, but this may be an unrelated problem.

I appreciate any help offered.

Thanks,
Roger
