Hi everyone,
I just installed kde-plasma-5 and sddm and I'm getting weird behavior when logging in. When I move the mouse over the password field, the screen flickers and flashes. I'm using xf86-video-intel drivers.
I haven't touched the Xorg configuration file from installation.
Is there something I need to install? Is this just a bug in SDDM? I got the behavior with xorg-drivers as well.

Removing
nomodesetfrom the GRUB entry fixed it.

Hi everyone,
I'm running into a couple of issues in my fresh installation of Funtoo. The main one is getting Xorg to work. I'm getting an error saying that Xorg can't find any displays, and I believe it's because I don't have the Intel drivers installed. However, when I try to install them, I get the following error message:
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies .... done! [ebuild N ] x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.99.917_p20210215::core-gl-kit USE="dri udev uxa -debug -sna -tools -xvmc" 1,222 KiB [blocks B ] x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel ("x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel" is blocking x11-base/xorg-drivers-1.20) Total: 1 package (1 new), Size of downloads: 1,222 KiB Conflict: 1 block (1 unsatisfied)It's been a long time since I've had a Funtoo installation, so I'm not sure how to handle this. Should xorg-drivers contain the driver for my Intel graphics, or do I need xf86-video-intel (as in the Video guide)? How would I resolve this?
My make.conf is this:
CFLAGS="-mtune=native -O2 -pipe" CXXFLAGS="-mtune=native -O2 -pipe" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" VIDEO_CARDS="intel, intel i915, intel i965" MAKEOPTS="-j4" USE="mmx sse -v4l" ACCEPT_LICENSE="*" LINGUAS="en_US"Thanks!

I've tried using modesetting per an answer on the Gentoo forums but it hasn't worked.
Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "modesetting" Option "AccelMethod" "glamor" Option "DRI" "3" EndSectionThe Xorg log confirms that it is loading the modesetting driver:
