New gdm puts executable in /usr/sbin/gdm but /etc/init.d/xdm is looking for /usr/bin/gdm. Simple workaround: ln -sf /usr/sbin/gdm /usr/bin/gdm
*gdm-3.8.3.1 (14 Jul 2013) 14 Jul 2013; Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org> +gdm-3.8.3.1.ebuild: Version bump, use more upstream stuff (like exherbo pam.d files, systemd units), systemd is required as upstream only cares about it (#463784) and we will need systemd for other Gnome 3.8 parts (also, logind cannot be run without systemd from >= 205). In summary, you need to migrate to systemd
not clear. Am I supposed to do a complete migration to systemd and replace init or just install systemd to work along with openrc with is still controlling the boot process?

Will give it a try tonight. Don't see anything about raid or lvm. Maybe it just works. Also don't see any way to start vmware service.

In some cases, unit files are present in testing packages (that moved me to create https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=unit-in-stable with the packages I hit), most unit files available in systemd-love overlay were recently committed (https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=systemd-love), but there are more pending unit files blocking https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448882) You can try to find unit files in other distributions like opensuse, fedora, Arch, Mageia and try to make them work on Gentoo. In that case would be nice if you could report the bug and make it block bug 448882
first more info of gdm. I am now using full systemd. systemctl start gdm brings up a signon dialog but after signing in I get 4 blank screens and nothing happens. I then went back to tty1 and ctrl-c and startx and gnome came up. Later I logged out and systemctl restart gdm and it worked perfectly. No idea why yet. I found vmware.target and service files from arch and modified them to work on gentoo. I will post to a bug later. I also had problem with ntp-client but fixed by removing all the \ from NTPCLIENT_OPTS in /etc/conf.d/ntp-client. Still looking for lvm2 unit files. Big omission. I know upstream is in love the initrams files but I am not. I will post more bugs later. systemd needs lots of love.
Open new bugs for each issue. Anyway, for the first one, it looks like one I different long time ago -> bug 464842 -> in summary, try with newer mesa (I am running 9.1.3)
lvm2 is handled in bug 453594, for the rest of missing unit files, please make them block bug 448882 Thanks!
