i continued testing xorg7.1 today ...
the issue with xorg-drv-nv was easily resolved with the help of lordsweety .. he made a new package for rocketfuel which uses /usr as prefix instead of /opt/Xgl ..
when i tried to install it .. it didnt want to install .. as something was setup wrong before somehow ...
the dir /usr/share/hwdata/videoaliases .. turned out to be a file .. when doing ls -a -l from /usr/share/hwdata ... so i removed this file .. and tried installing the package xorg-drv-nv (rocketfuel) again ...
this time it appears to install succesfully ..
When i do startx .. xorg is still complaining about missing lots of fonts and so on ..

from the cli i did chkfontpath .. and it was complaining it couldnt find a path
as it appears in .. /etc/X11/fs/ there is only a config.rpmsave file but no config .. so this is why it is complaining ..
config.rpmsave is off course an old config file that came with xorg 6.8.2 which i removed before ..
what i did to resolve this is copy the config file from /usr/lib/X11/fs/ to /etc/X11/fs/ .. now checkfontpath
reports the fontpath according to this config file ... there is only one problem .. the fonts are not installed .. :)
this is only logical .. as the font packages havent been packaged yet .. so this can be tested later ..
i simply need x11-xorg-fonts-* packages ... for xorg7.1 .. later when these have been packaged i can test more ..
so far so good looking good ... xorg7.1
I followed up on a tip from gentoo ... to remove the dir /usr/X11R6 and replace the subdir X11R6 by a symlink to /usr
doing within /usr:
ln -s ../usr X11R6
this way if there are still old paths set it points to the new default path for modular xorg
this symlink can be deleted later when it appears to be overkill offcourse .. :)
Well i will eat something first now .. i got hungry from testing ..
Cheers,
Johnbon
