Created attachment 51167 [details] my xorg.conf working on builds of xorg-x11 which i haven't merged myself
Add 'dlloader' to your use flags. The elf loader is not supported by hardened, it's too primitive. The other alternative is to build X static, but I'd guess you probably don't want that.
aye... i tell you tommorrow (or the day after) if it works... *compiling*
thx alot, that dlloader useflag did it :)
changing this "bug"-message to resolved/fixed...
Shouldn't hardened imply dlloader in USE flags then?
And how is this fixed?
Created attachment 60282 [details, diff] Possible fix
The preference for dlloader with xorg-x11 is independent of arch (more accurately the problems with elfloader occur on all hardened arches!). Currently 'dlloader' is in the hardened profile for ppc, ppc64, x86 and x86/2.6 - I don't know when it was added, but the point is that these hardened profile users get it by default, so it's correct to consider it fixed. The ppc & ppc64 profiles are currently 'in testing' - so using them, finding and reporting issues with them would be appreciated.
