Description Joseph Mulloy 2009-12-12 05:57:59 UTC 
I'm building a new system and installed xorg-server according to the instructions in http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml. Portage fails to pull in x11-base/xorg-drivers and thus does not install any drivers. I am using ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to install xorg-server according to the official directions.

Actual Results:  
Video and Input drivers are not installed

Expected Results:  
All necessary drivers are installed based on INPUT_DEVICE and VIDEO_CARDS in /etc/make.conf and X is actually able to start

Comment 1 Joseph Mulloy 2009-12-12 06:03:16 UTC 
Just tried emerge -pvD xorg-server and it seems to be pulling in the deps correctly.

I was using --jobs when installing so this may have cause the problem.
