I cannot use Plasma 5 with it. I cannot click on anything, desktop icons, systray ,etc... no action until i downgraded it.
(In reply to Rafal Kupiec from comment #1) > I cannot use Plasma 5 with it. I cannot click on anything, desktop icons, > systray ,etc... no action until i downgraded it. I have no idea how this patch can cause that behavior. Can you confirm that this is a regression introduced by the patch, i.e., xorg-server-1.19.99.901 as it is in the tree works, but it becomes unusable after you apply this patch? If your issue is unrelated to this patch and the crash on xserver startup that it fixes, please file a new bug report.
I have only downgraded xorg-server from 1.19.99.901 to 1.19.5-r1 and all my issues are gone.
Here, the symptoms are a bit different, I get xf86OpenConsole Cannot open virtual console 7 (permission denied). Downgrading to 1.19.5-r1 solves this issue, as well.
Couldn't start X at all, it was crashed right at the start , bad file descriptor. Downgrading Xorg to 1.19.5 solved that problem.
Created attachment 522420 [details] Xorg.0.log I can confirm this. I tried rebuilding all Xorg modules and checked linking consistency with revdep-rebuild, with no luck. It happens with both sddm and by running startx from the command-line.

My plasma is still freezing with it.
(In reply to Rafal Kupiec from comment #13) > My plasma is still freezing with it. Please open a new bug. I do not believe what you are reporting is the same as this bug.
Solved my issue by following : https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Non_root_Xorg Now I have a problem with polybar not showing, it can't find monitor for some reason, but that's another matter.
