Perhaps some information on your hardware and a copy of your xorg.conf would help. Specifically:
- your architecture (CPU)
- your video card make/model
- your USE flags and CFLAGS
- X -version output

xorgcfg
xorgconfig
X -configure
then copy config from /root to /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Already known, xorg doesnt like compiling with a hardened GCC.
In other words, recompile GCC with USE="-hardened -pie" and try again. |
