gnome 3.36.2 upgrade question


tbuck713

Question

Hi, just completed the upgrade for gnome 3.36.2 and and all went well, but now upon a fresh ego sync and emerge -avDN @world, i'm getting an X warning about my xdm file

 

tux-x131e ~ # emerge -avDN @world

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

Total: 0 packages, Size of downloads: 0 KiB

Nothing to merge; quitting.

tux-x131e ~ # emerge --depclean

 * Always study the list of packages to be cleaned for any obvious
 * mistakes. Packages that are part of the world set will always
 * be kept.  They can be manually added to this set with
 * `emerge --noreplace <atom>`.  Packages that are listed in
 * package.provided (see portage(5)) will be removed by
 * depclean, even if they are part of the world set.
 *
 * As a safety measure, depclean will not remove any packages
 * unless *all* required dependencies have been resolved.  As a
 * consequence of this, it often becomes necessary to run
 * `emerge --update --newuse --deep @world` prior to depclean.

 * GNU info directory index is up-to-date.

 * IMPORTANT: config file '/etc/conf.d/xdm' needs updating.
 * See the CONFIGURATION FILES and CONFIGURATION FILES UPDATE TOOLS
 * sections of the emerge man page to learn how to update config files.
tux-x131e ~ #

 We always try and start X on a static VT. The various DMs normally default
# to using VT7. If you wish to use the xdm init script, then you should ensure
# that the VT checked is the same VT your DM wants to use. We do this check to
# ensure that you haven't accidentally configured something to run on the VT
# in your /etc/inittab file so that you don't get a dead keyboard.
CHECKVT=7

# What display manager do you use ?  [ xdm | gdm | sddm | gpe | lightdm | entrance ]
# NOTE: If this is set in /etc/rc.conf, that setting will override this one.
DISPLAYMANAGER="gdm"

 

 

I don't understand what or how it needs to be updated.

X has started flickering and crashing since the update. It happens after 5 minutes when screen dims to go to sleep.

Is there something i neglected to clean up?

 

regards,

Tom
