Org server is handled by Xwayland on systems running the Wayland protocol. This page provides useful information but the Xorg guide details the installation of Xorg in a more convenient manner. Installing xorg-server is much lighter than emerging the entire xorg package, and has all the necessary components to have a fully functional GUI such as plasma for example.
Portage knows the X USE flag for enabling support for X in other packages default in all desktop profiles. It is recommended to issue the --verbose option when emerging xorg-server because xorg-drivers or mesa may be pulled in as dependencies if they are not already installed.
Using --verbose will show more information on USE flags and dependencies before package installation. It is a best practice to allow them to be merged into the system as dependencies by setting USE flags or using a graphical profile. Issue the command emerge --search mesa to see if mesa is already installed prior to emerging. Install xrandr emerge xrandr just long enough to get this information. The argument after the monitor name in the Device section must match the Identifier in the Monitor section.
Run X startx to discover it uses the desired resolution. Give each monitor a unique identifier, then list its physical position, such as "RightOf" or "Above" another monitor. This example features a Czech keyboard layout:.
For methods of switching the keyboard layout see the Keyboard layout switching article. This will, however, make X exit disgracefully -- something that users might want to avoid.
It can be useful when programs have frozen the display entirely, or when configuring and tweaking the Xorg environment. Be careful when killing the desktop with this key combination - most programs really do not like it when they are ended this way. Some, if not all, of the information that has not been written to the disk information stored in "open documents" will be lost. Run startx and be happy about the result. Congratulations, you now hopefully have a working Xorg!
Information on installing these desktop environments can be found here on the wiki. Be sure to have them open on a terminal when editing Xorg configuration files! Only a few are listed here; use a favorite search engine to find more.
More information about installing and configuring various graphical desktop environments and applications can be found in the section of our documentation. When upgrading to xorg-server 1.

Do not be alarmed if you find this option missing in new kernels. This newer driver was written for GCN5. It is planned to make this additional support for older Radeon cards the standard, so do not be alarmed if you find this option missing in newer kernels.
However, setting up the proprietary drivers is beyond the scope of this guide. Get rEFInd. For simpler booting in some configurations, ensure that you've installed EFI filesystem drivers for the partition that holds your Linux kernel.
Screenshots from user Drake Donahue. It is not compatible with secure boot, so you will need to disable it prior to trying to boot it. Complete kernel configuration according to EFI stub and proceed from Configuring the modules. Use gdisk instead of fdisk or parted for GPT disks. Run blkid :. Use either "7. Default: Manual Configuration" or "7.
Alternative: Using genkernel" but start genkernel with genkernel --menuconfig all verses just genkernel all. In addition to the items specified in the handbook or set by genkernel, enable the following:. Ready to go? These steps are all described in the Gentoo Handbook.
