Hi Everyone, I'm having some problems getting Xorg working on my gentoo install. I've started a thread on the gentoo forums, I haven't received any replies since Friday. the link is located here; https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-939876.html Basically I have been following the gentoo handbook; http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml the Xorg guide; http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml and the NVIDIA guide; http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/nvidia-guide.xml When I type 'startx' after installing and configuring everything to use the NVIDIA binary blob (using both root and my normal user) I get the following output NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidia0 (input/output error) Fatal server error: no screens found. This is not the first gentoo install I have done. But it is the first one where I have come across this error. My Xorg.0.log is located below; http://bpaste.net/show/51733/ /var/log/messages; http://bpaste.net/show/51739/ ANd finally my /etc/X11/xorg.conf; http://bpaste.net/show/51732/ I have tried everything that was suggested on the forums but still no dice.
From the log files it seems that the Xorg server is having trouble opening the device file /dev/nvidia0.. I could be wrong though..
Any help would be appreciated. Brett.
