then when I issued the startx command from my user account prompt, X failed to start and I received an error that says that no screen was found. I tried to do a Xorg -configure from the root account prompt and I got the same error in addition to a signal 11 error. I am using a Radeon HD graphics card and I already have xf86-video-ati installed. I have no idea what is going on with this thing.. please help! Let me know which information I should provide you from my system. Thanks!

Hello all
I recently installed Funtoo and Xorg and LxQT, I set up lightdm as instructed on the Funtoo LightDM documentation, including the greeter. When I rebooted my system, the greeter never showed up and all I see, is a black screen with a blinking cursor. I SSH'd into the system and removed xdm from default, then i logged in as my user account, and set up lxqt to start manually, by placing:
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session startlxqt
in ~/.xinitrc
then when I issued the startx command from my user account prompt, X failed to start and I received an error that says that no screen was found. I tried to do a Xorg -configure from the root account prompt and I got the same error in addition to a signal 11 error. I am using a Radeon HD graphics card and I already have xf86-video-ati installed. I have no idea what is going on with this thing.. please help!
