startx failures

[1Cajun]

I get three failures shen I run startx

failed ot load module "speedo" (module does not exist, 0)
VESA(0): no matching modes
Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration

I'm a Newbie so be nice but I need help

did you run all the standard xorg config utils?

video card is Intel(R) 82810E Graphics Controller

now I am getting a problem parsing the config file

/etc/X11/xorg.conf

try running xorgconfig. it is usually good at getting you at least running. once that works you can tweak it from there to get 3d accel and other stuff and then when something breaks you know where it was.

So... wait, what's the problem? You get those error messages when you "startx" but you said you ran xorgconfig. How did that go? What is the problem with being out of space?

Apparently i have filled up an 8G drive with God Knows what from repeated attempts to configure the X-server
How do i find the junk and remove it?

When you emerge stuff, the downloaded files go into /etc/portage/distfiles/. The only real advantage of holding onto this stuff is for things which are large downloads (since it will save bandwidth as well as download time before installation or compilation) So, for the most part, you can remove pretty much everything in that folder. I usually run:
