[gentoo-user] X server won't load

I rebooted into my 2.6.22-rc3-rsdl1.0-hrt2 kernel and the X server crashes (reminds me of Beryl on Ubuntu, but this time, there is a blank black screen and no mouse). The problem is, my laptop has no serial port, and therefore, I can't dmesg after starting X. Because my keyboard has gone belly-up

Thanks for the clarification. The reason is as you say that dev-java/sun-jdk:1.6 is a binary package that isn't ABI compatible with libstdc++.so.6 (from gcc-4.x). And as we don't have the source we cannot fix that with revdep-rebuild. But I'm already running sun-jdk on my machine that I manual

[gentoo-user] sun-jdk dependencies questions

Why does sun-jdk needs gcc-3.3.6 and and libstdc++-3.3? As I understand sun-jdk-1.6.0.01 is a binary package, and java works just fine if downloaded and installed from Sun site, without portage. Since I don't have enough disk spac fro another gcc, is it possible to somehow let portage handle sun-
