Do I have any other options in terms of X servers? X works, you have a problem generally with your build environment. a. IIRC the stages are built w/ kernel-headers-2.4, if you want to use 2.6, it would be better to start from stage1 and rebuild everything b. haven't tested current hardened stage3, but if I would want hardened uClibc freshly installed, I would also start from a stage1. To check why I say b. run (consider adding all the dirs from your PATH to the command below) file /bin/* /usr/bin/* /sbin/* /usr/sbin/* | grep ELF | grep -v 'shared object' The listed files (executables) should all be static binaries, if they are not, the packages providing those files were not built hardened. > (kdrive seems to give the same result, but I'm currently trying again.) kdrive is obsoleted (at least IMHO), try maybe the modular-X (emerge xorg-server), package masked.
