hey martin,
i've been running xorg for the past few months on gentoo with gem without too many problems.. altho i'm not running nvidia, i do get lockups when running -rt flag as root.. i think the reason for this has been discussed previously, but couldn't find the posts..
nonetheless this same problem occured running in xfree, so mebbe i'm leading you astray..
all i can suggest is that you recompile gem for xorg, there may be a few minor changes in the headers that's throwing gem.. are you using nvidia based drivers or those with X? have yu tried to switch?
for your info i run: gem-0.90 xorg-6.7 pd-0.37
i hope that positive experiences don't lead to more frustration ;)
ciao

hi,
i just reinstalled my system and thus got my first xorg x11 (as opposed to xfree86 x11) running. everything went quite smooth (for gentoo circumstances) yet when testing my standard pd libs i had a hard crash as soon as i opened a gem window - everything frozen. opengl (nvidia) works and 2d-acceleration is also fine.
does anybody else have positive or negative experiences with xorg x11 + gem? especially on gentoo.
