i have been successfully running gentoo and Xorg on my 15" aluminum

world a few days ago, X refuses to start up. i tried recompiling my kernel
and going over my xorg.conf file, but can't find anything amiss. when i
run startx, the screen goes black like it always does on startup, the
cursor appears, and then it crashes. here's the output after it crashes:
Code:

X Window System Version 6.8.2
Release Date: 9 February 2005
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.8.2
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.14-rc4 ppc [ELF]
Current Operating System: Linux 8008135 2.6.14-rc4 # SMP Sun Nov 13
03:35:07 UTC 2005 ppc

why don't you use a 2.6.14 kernel, instead of the -rc4 version?
