Hi,
I tried it but apparently didn't do it right, or possibly it was
because the xorg emerge was part of a larger emerge -puvD world
process. Anyway, I had to start it over.
In the spirit of a thread a week ago about etc-update breaking
machines, the xorg etc-update step broke mine this evening. It looked
innocent enough. It wanted to change the keyboard driver from 'kbd' to
'keyboard'. I let it do it and X wouldn't start. Good think I had been
paying attention as I was able to hand edit my config file and X came
back up.
Anyway, thanks for the answers even if I didn't apparently
understand them completely. I really appreciate that this group of
people respond so quickly and so generously.
With best regards,
Mark
