> You need at least the following ports: > > x11-drivers/xf86-video-mga > x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse > x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard I wanted to thank everybody who helped me. I added those ports, and that fixed the problem I had before. So, I was able to issue: X -configure and obtain xorg.conf.new file. I checked the configuration and found that the hardware was recognized without errors. The pathes were changed to /usr/local accordingly. But when I issue: X -config /root/xorg.conf.new the X server doesn't start; it fails with the message: Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' I checked xorg.conf.new and found that the pathes to appropriate fonts are listed there, namely: xorg-fonts-100dpi-7.2 xorg-fonts-75dpi-7.2 xorg-fonts-cyrillic-7.2 xorg-fonts-miscbitmaps-7.2 xorg-fonts-truetype-7.2 xorg-fonts-type1-7.2 I checked all the directories; they exist, and their contents exist. I tried mkfontdir in each of them, but it changed nothing. Maybe, you could advise me what I need to do in order to resolve it, apart from rebuilding the whole thing. Thank you very much in advance!
