This guide is going to show you how to get X.org 7.1 up and running on Linux (the emphasis will be on using Gentoo, but it should work on any other Linux distro as well).

We of course can’t possibly do anything if we are missing X.org. To obtain this in Gentoo is very simple:

emerge --sync
emerge xorg-x11
