You have an EndSubSection with no preceeding "SubSection", and a "SubSection" at the end.
You might try "X -configure" then "X -allowMouseOpenFail -config <new config line from -configure>". This lets the X server autodetect and autoconfigure everything, and the new xorg.conf should give you a good starting point for changes. On my system, it doesn't get the correct pointer path (/dev/input/mice instead of /dev/mouse), so I have to start the server with -allowMouseOpenFail. One important note...if you don't already know, Ctrl+Alt+Backspace should kill the X server started this way...or Ctrl+Alt+F1 to return to the console. Hope this helps. -Richard > > -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
