I am guessing this has been solved in 2008beta, downloading it. I belive I'm experiencing the same problem as various ATi users. Will latest Nvidia AMD64 drivers do the trick? If so, how do I mount It's package on the Gentoo2007 livecd? (pre-GUI, as it fails out) Maybe compiling new xorg-x11 sources with the livecd? Or maybe this is just a solvable config issue? Thanks, Dror. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot Gentoo.LiveCD.2007.64bit 2. 'boot: gentoo' 3. starting......................... xorg-x11 error Actual Results: lands me to liveCD console after error message Expected Results: Load the complete GUI PC: Athlon 6000+ X2 64bit GForce8800 GTS Nforce 570 ultra 2GB DDR800
You could try installing Gentoo Linux using the Gentoo Linux Handbook at <http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/index.xml>. It's entirely possible to install without the use of X.
