I've made emerge -u --newuse world and after that I'm not able to access my machine remotely with XDMCP. All configuration files remained unchaged. I think this it's IPV6 problem, this is output of X -query server: _XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6 _XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/nb:0 _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to open listener for inet6 XDMCP warning: INET6 UDP socket creation failed I've tried to recompile xorg-x11 without ipv6 support but with no effect Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Do you have your kernel compiled with ipv6? It appears that your attempt to remove ipv6 from USE was ineffective, based on your `emerge info`. USE=" ... ipv6 ... " What's `emerge -vp xorg-x11` give?
i've excluded ipv6 only from xorg-x11 in /etc/potrage/package.use i've tried to compile ipv6 into my kernel as a module but: $modprobe ipv6 FATAL: Error inserting ipv6 (/lib/modules/2.6.10-gentoo-r4/kernel/net/ipv6/ipv6.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) $dmesg ipv6: Unknown symbol secure_tcpv6_sequence_number ipv6: Unknown symbol ipv6_skip_exthdr ipv6: Unknown symbol ipv6_ext_hdr I don't need ipv6 system, so I've put -ipv6 into USE flags and right now I'm doing "emerge -e --newuse world", I'll let you know if it helps me with the problem after emerge is done with the compilation one more thing I've forgot to mention: when I do "X -query machine" I get the X screen with cursor, but it's blank, xdm doesn't start.
OMG, i've tried again with -ipv6 system and the problem persits. I really don't know what's going on. Does anyone have a clue what should solve it?
I appologize for cofusion, I've found a typo in config file... :-$
