Description John Ross Hunt 2009-10-14 01:53:44 UTC
After upgrading to xorg 1.6, the X server no longer starts.  dmesg output shows a kernel error mapping to non-existent PCI legacy memory.  I followed the xorg 1.6 and libxcb 1.4 upgrade guides and just to make sure there weren't any broken dependencies, did: 'qlist -I -C x11-base/ x11-libs/ x11-drivers/ x11-proto/ | xargs emerge -v' to rebuild everything.  The X server still will not start.  It did start with xorg 1.5.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. do xorg 1.6 upgrade procedure
2. run startx
3. cry tears

Actual Results:  
x server does not start

Expected Results:  
x server should start

dmesg output

Most of this is probably irrelevant.  The error is the very last line.
Comment 3 Wormo (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-10-26 02:21:00 UTC
Have you tried upgrading to xf86-video-nv-2.1.15 to see if it still has the problem?
