Well,
it appears the magic is to rebuild the kernel with the 82845G driver as a module
rather than just present. I'm clueless why it needs be configured as a
module. If anyone can shed light on that, I would appreciate it.
Meanwhile, I have KDE running, and I suspect that twm and Gnome will also
work.
Desperately grasping at straws, I did and emerge -e world over night,
and things now work differently, but I am still not there. I am
including a snippet of the Xorg.0.log and the output that comes to my screen
after I use ctrl-alt-backspace to terminate X -config xorg.conf.new. I
apologize in advance for the size of this post, but like I said, I am
desperate.
Here
is a snippet of the /var/log/Xorg.0.log having to do with the I810
driver.

All suggestions are
welcome.
I
have made some observations with regard to my garbled monitor after exiting
the test run of the xorg X server.
My
on-board graphics chipset is an 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]. When I built
the kernel, I selected that driver instead of the i810. I just noticed
a "Driver = "i810"" line in my automatically generated configuration
file. Would this be probable cause? Any guess as to whether I
could/should rip the drivers and just use a VESA driver
instead?
TIA.
Dennis
Thanks to all who have
responded.
The fix_lib_tool_files.sh script did not do
it for me, but emerge did. Now I have successfully emerged
Gnome.
I still do not have X11 properly
configured. I was able to get Knoppix to run X-11 OK, but was
unsuccessful at adapting its XFree86 configuration file to xorg. I
have tried the SLAX Live CD that reportedly uses xorg, but it is unable to
start X on my hardware. :-(
As time permits, I will study the details of how
to configure xorg to work on my monitor.
Maybe I am wrong on that, but your emerge
problem could be due to the libtool config.
There is a manual fix
to run after updating gcc, from a previous message:
>Probably
upgraded gcc recently? Try fix_libtool_files.sh 3.3.4 as root.
>If that doesn't work try emerging libtool again, perhaps with
emerge >-1 libtool.
This is sort of
a recurring emerge problem that you see many people having in the
mailing list. It happened to me with a similar "No such file" errors in
the gcc-lib, the fix_libtool worked, but I am no wiz, somebody can
comment on that?

I am going to try the Knoppix later today to see if I can get a better X config file. I suspect that the probing done to get the configuration for the monitor did not work quite right. I can probably dig some more and figure out how to get it to use a lower refresh rate or something like that to get it going if Knoppix does not happen to configure it right. More on that later.
Meanwhile, I was not surprised that X is a requirement for the Window managers. I thought I remembered it that way, but it has been 10 years since I played with X. I still cannot get Gnome to emerge properly. Does anyone have an insight into what causes the following error? I think I have included enough of the output from the emerge to find the top most error. :-)

I have read the DOCs, but I am missing something. I want to run X-windows
on my Gentoo box (2.6.10-gentoo-r6), but so far have been unsuccessful. It
is unclear to me whether Gnome or KDE need me to first install Xorg. When
... xorg is a dependency of KDE and Gnome, just a graphics server... and what
is the error are you encountering when emerging Gnome or KDE?
Gnome would not emerge without error, I tried first emerging/configuring
Xorg-X11, but it will not configure correctly for me. When I run X
-config, it produces a file with an extra horizontal synch line that is all
corrupted. When I remove it, then X -config /root/xorg.conf.new will start
and show a "dotted" background like I remember from years ago using
XFree86. The mouse works because moving it around moves the mouse pointer
(X). I can only get out of it with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, and that leaves my
monitor unreadable.
... this somewhat indicates that X server is somewhat (sic!) working. Did you
go through the configure procedure, keyboard mouse, monitor, graphics card,
hsync, vsync, do you have all the information needed ready, especially about
hsync, vsync supported by your display? However, the choice of the windows
manager should not affect the success of an emerge unless something else is
wrong.
Do I need the X server for Gnome and/or KDE? If so, any ideas?
.. your call, depends on whether you prefer Gnome or KDE as a desktop
environment...
My use flags are as follows:
USE="gtk gnome qt kde dvd alsa cdr nptl nptlonly"
... this is very basic and does not matter whether you will be emerging Gnome
or KDE later on, IMHO, it just creates overhead installing both, although it
is an individual choice (of course)...
I did an emerge --sync last week.
.. this doesn't matter much, either and will not take the decision away from
you about which window manager you want, and ahh, yes, there are others, too.
Follow the instructions about installing the desktop environment in the
Gentoo Desktop Guide.
