 XF86Config-4 <> xorg.conf - how come the name influences start or not of X I just unmerge (emerge -C) xfree and emerge xorg-x11. As I read the message it stated that unless xorg.conf is found it will read XF86Config, which is fine with me and works  so I: cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /etc/X11/xorg.conf the X tries to start i.e. I see nvidia then fails the log says Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf it starts fine I didn't reboot yet but i don't think that might have influence. How come?      |

Have you changed all the font paths in the configuration file? I believe for xorg-x11, the paths should be: /usr/share/fonts/* Not sure why one file would work and not the other though...? |

That's what suprises me It works fine as long as it's the old name |
