You could try "xorgconfig" instead.
i tried "xorgcfg" and same blank screen.
Or just use the xorg.conf from your Gentoo installation, and adjust that to CRUX.
that seems like good idea :-) -- http://arnuld.blogspot.com/

and what about the command that I suggested? Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?

Hi, xorgcfg is the same as Xorg -config But for me xorgcfg never worked well. Try the Textmode is maybe a better choice. # xorgcfg -textmode regards Hannes Am Montag, 16. April 2007 19:42:51 schrieb arnuld:

And if that works, then you may do a diff between it and the non working one, just to discover, and report, what it was that caused the problem.
