I recently got an Acer Aspireone AO751h netbook.  So I compile X, and
run startx, and get a fatal server error about "no screens found".  See
attachment. So I try the old standby...
  - add "VGA" to "VIDEO_CARDS" in /etc/make.conf
  - try to "emerge xorg-drivers xf86-video-vga" (either together or
    separately) and find that they block each other.

  A bit of spelunking indicates that both available xorg-driver ebuilds
explicitly blacklist VGA, so I have nothing to fall back to.  Thanks for
nothing fellas.  Meanwhile, the microKnoppix "live CD" (actually on a
USB stick) has no problems running at 1024x768.
