helena Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 This is a new (and my first Funtoo, while being a Gentoo veteran) install. I chose the 1.4-release-std gnome from the amd-zen tree. Booting to a command prompt (as root, for now) works perfectly, only firing up Gnome doesn't work. When entering startx (I have a correct .xinitrc) within seconds I am returned to the command prompt with no helpful message. The Xorg log file is attached. Anybody?

cardinal Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Did you configure openrc to start elogind ? After regular user login, before running startx is the user session listed when you run loginctl ? rj@funtoo ~ $ loginctl SESSION UID USER SEAT TTY 2 1000 rj seat0 tty1 Reference: https://www.funtoo.org/GNOME_First_Steps#A_few_finishing_touches Edited August 2, 2020 by cardinal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, there's a whole lot of services unused, many more than I would expect: lvmetad [ stopped ] mit-krb5kdc [ stopped ] samba [ stopped ] udev-settle [ stopped ] brltty [ stopped ] net.lo [ stopped ] bootlogd [ stopped ] dnsmasq [ stopped ] busybox-watchdog [ stopped ] cupsd [ stopped ] net-online [ stopped ] apache2 [ stopped ] cups-browsed [ stopped ] lvm [ stopped ] mdraid [ stopped ] openrc-settingsd [ started ] device-mapper [ stopped ] osclock [ stopped ] consolefont [ stopped ] nvidia-persistenced [ stopped ] pydoc-2.7 [ stopped ] git-daemon [ stopped ] dhcpcd [ stopped ] boltd [ stopped ] pwcheck [ stopped ] runsvdir [ stopped ] dmcrypt [ stopped ] iptables [ stopped ] swclock [ stopped ] pciparm [ stopped ] ip6tables [ stopped ] saslauthd [ stopped ] busybox-ntpd [ stopped ] gpm [ stopped ] xdm-setup [ stopped ] s6-svscan [ stopped ] mit-krb5kadmind [ stopped ] numlock [ stopped ] udev-postmount [ stopped ] mit-krb5kpropd [ stopped ] xdm [ stopped ] avahi-dnsconfd [ stopped ] pydoc-3.7 [ stopped ] rsyncd [ stopped ] fuse [ stopped ] mdadm [ stopped ] slapd [ stopped ] dmeventd [ stopped ] lvm-monitoring [ stopped ] agetty [ stopped ] wpa_supplicant [ stopped ] nvidia-smi [ stopped ] To the 2nd question: SESSION UID USER SEAT TTY 1 0 root seat0 tty1 1 sessions listed. Moreover, the output of emerge -auND @world show that some NVIDIA-modules need to be compiled, whereas my system is AMD based. Even in the above listing you see a few nvidia-services. While my profile is: === Enabled Profiles: === arch: x86-64bit build: current subarch: amd64-zen flavor: desktop mix-ins: gnome mix-ins: gfxcard-amdgpu === Python kit: === branch: 3.7-release === All inherited flavor from desktop flavor: === workstation (from desktop flavor) core (from workstation flavor) minimal (from core flavor) === All inherited mix-ins from desktop flavor: === X (from workstation flavor) audio (from workstation flavor) dvd (from workstation flavor) media (from workstation flavor) mediadevice-audio-consumer (from media mix-in) mediadevice-base (from mediadevice-audio-consumer mix-in) mediadevice-video-consumer (from media mix-in) mediadevice-base (from mediadevice-video-consumer mix-in) mediaformat-audio-common (from media mix-in) mediaformat-gfx-common (from media mix-in) mediaformat-video-common (from media mix-in) console-extras (from workstation flavor) print (from desktop flavor) === All inherited flavor from gnome mix-ins: === desktop (from gnome-kit:gnome mix-in) workstation (from desktop flavor) core (from workstation flavor) minimal (from core flavor) === All inherited mix-ins from gnome mix-ins: === gnome-kit:gnome (from gnome mix-in) X (from workstation flavor) audio (from workstation flavor) dvd (from workstation flavor) media (from workstation flavor) mediadevice-audio-consumer (from media mix-in) mediadevice-base (from mediadevice-audio-consumer mix-in) mediadevice-video-consumer (from media mix-in) mediadevice-base (from mediadevice-video-consumer mix-in) mediaformat-audio-common (from media mix-in) mediaformat-gfx-common (from media mix-in) mediaformat-video-common (from media mix-in) console-extras (from workstation flavor) print (from desktop flavor) === All inherited mix-ins from gfxcard-amdgpu mix-ins: === core-gl-kit:gfxcard-amdgpu (from gfxcard-amdgpu mix-in) Strange...

helena Posted August 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) Somehow, nvidia-kernel-modules crept into my world file. It must have been there when downloading the tarball. Even when I removed the gfxcard-nvidia mix-in it didn't' go away. This seems responsible for all the unnecessary nvidia stuff.

helena Posted August 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 I am now getting an xauth: file /root/.serverauth.xxxxx does not exist error. Googling for this I found no solution yet. Furthermore, it appears that xorg-x11 is not installed, only xorg-server. Should that be enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
