Reemerge all xf86* packages
Quite obvious as the log clearly gives the clue (new xorg server
version, driver version mismatch)
I looked right at it and missed the obvious!  Thanks for the
clue-by-four.
BTW, emerge -a @x11-module-rebuild will do this.

        Wonko

emerge: There are no sets to satisfy 'x11-module-rebuild'. The
following sets exist:

     selected
     system
     world


Someone posted this one liner a while back:

emerge -1a $(qlist -I -C x11-drivers/)

That takes care of the video driver, mouse, keyboard and such. Mine is these packages:

root@fireball / # qlist -I -C x11-drivers/
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers
x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev
x11-drivers/xf86-video-nv
x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa
root@fireball / #

I try to remember to run that when I upgrade the kernel or xorg. I usually forget and have to do the SysReq keystroke magic. After I slap my forehead of course.

There are quite a few of these commands that gets posted from time to time. As a hint, I have a text file in my /root directory that contains the commands and a description. I just cat and grep the file when I need to. I wouldn't recommend a user directory tho. If for someone reason only root is mounted, then you can get to /root but not /home if it is a separate partition. You, and other Gentooers, may want to think about doing something like this.

Hope this helps in some small way.

Miss the compile output?  Hint:
