Enclosed are files that should help clarify the bug. I also enclosed a URL that points to a forum thread about the same error on a different platform. Created attachment 76371 [details] /etc/X11/xorg.conf I tried this file directly as is from geoman's site: <http://dev.gentoo.org/~geoman/Xstuff/> and also by commenting out (what I believe to be) the bitmap fonts, /usr/share/fonts/{100dpi, 75dpi}. Neither way worked. Created attachment 76372 [details]

emerge log for X11
After adding the dlloader USE flag, X works properly. To be a bit more exact, I also had to add "-xvideo -opengl to avoid a build problem with X after opengl was automatically chosen for emerge (via an emerge -vauDN world). Without this, emerge bombed with a message saying it is a know bug that you cannot choose opengl and not xvideo, or some such. I saved the message, which was kind of strange, but I'm not in front of the machine now. In any case, since I never choose anything but took the default flags provided, it seems like an avoidable error. I fixed it by setting -xvideo and -opengl. I think all these little troubles could be summarized by saying that the xorg-x11 ebuild for mips needs a bit of tweaking so it uses dlloader and apparently -opengl/-xvideo (or +opengl/+xvideo). Exactly zero response here from mips team... Anyway:
>=xorg-7.0 uses dlloader by default, assuming fixed. If you still have problems w/ xorg-server-1.1.1, then reopen; 6.8 is package.masked and totally unsupported.
