Hi,

I get errors when trying to start x server with gentoo live cd 2007.0

Here's the message I get :

My guess is that your video equipment is a little non-standard. Try using vesa mode, or simply use the non-gui installation system. Good luck!

I would suggest doing a manual install instead of using the installer. The installer is broken, and if you do a manual install, you will learn how gentoo works.
