Here is a link that possibly explains this error: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xorg.devel/35490 Examining the Gentoo xorg-server source that is used for this build, I do not see that this patch has been applied. Most likely this causes the error. I will have report this to the Gentoo bug list. I would also like to manually apply the patch and then recompile but I am not sure how to rebuild the digest with a new source. Frank Peters
