I have not changed the xorg.conf-file since before. It worked before change.
I just used the vesa-driver as it should be rather basic.
I' think this is a simple task for you to solve, it probably something I've missed when doing the emerge.
I can also add this:
| Code: | me@mycomp ~ $ ls /usr/lib/xorg/modules/
dri fonts libcfb.so libcfb32.so libfb.so liblayer.so librac.so libshadow.so libvgahw.so libxf4bpp.so libxf8_32wid.so

i am also running into this (trying to use vesa) and have not figured it out yet:
| Code: |
dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vesa_drv.so: undefined symbol: VBEExtendedInit
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vesa_drv.so
|
trying to use drivers for my i810 based card i see:
| Code: |
dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/i810_drv.so: undefined symbol: XAACreateInfoRec
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/i810_drv.so
|
i also see an error about speedo:
| Code: |
(EE) Failed to load module "speedo" (module does not exist, 0)
|
i usually just comment out the speedo module in xorg.conf. is this the proper thing to do in modular X?
if anyone has any hints on getting vesa or i810 working i'd greatly appreciate it. |

I went through some pain to get this working, but in the end it was simple. My i180_drv.so was bombing out with the undefined symbol XAACreateInfoRec. I finally made it go away by adding xaa to the module section of xorg.conf. Then I got a different undefined symbol. I figured out which module it was from, and loaded that too. Long story short, and a bunch of undefined symbols later, I got it working. My module section ended up being
| Code: | Section "Module"
Load "xaa"
Load "ramdac"
Load "record"
Load "fb"
Load "shadow"
Load "shadowfb"
Load "extmod"
Load "dbe"
Load "ddc"
Load "dri"
Load "glx"
Load "int10"
Load "xtrap"
Load "freetype"
Load "type1"
Load "vgahw"
Load "vbe"
EndSection

Some were already in there, and I don't remember why, so I don't know if all are truly necessary, but it worked for me. If you need additional modules for some reason, I found this list.
http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/Registry?rev=1.19
It is usually easy to figure out which module you need from the symbol name. If not, some googling will get you there. |

I am glad that my suggestions helped. I searched high and low for an answer here on the forums, but found nothing useful, and tried a lot of things that did nothing to help, although I think I tidied up my install the best it has ever been!
As for speedo, I have no idea. I never loaded that module, and it has never asked for it. |

| hmmm...it's odd. i started by deleting my xorg.cfg file, then creating a new one by using "xorgcfg -textmode". for some reason it puts in the speedo module by default. it seems to be a masked package. oh well, no biggie. all is well thanks to you. |
