Hello,
what is the video module for RPi 4?
I am trying to configure Xorg using
but the configuration fails.
I installed
Code: Select all
xf86-video-fbdev
xf86-video-fbturbo-git
the 1st works for RPi2 installation (on a RPi3 board).
Any ideas? The command
is not helpful.

Which operating system are your running ?
Why do you want to reconfigure it ?
On Raspbian Buste I belive you dont have an "xorg.conf", its all autodetected.

Note this is in the Arch" forum, so references to what happens in Buster aren't going to be helpful....

PS: I made a similar "Why do you want to do this" post yesterday but deleted it when I realise which forum it was in,

ah... yes I forget to check sub-forum quite often to be honest.

Thanks, this helped me get xorg and with that gnome working.
I had to install xf86-video-fbdev to get xorg working, and to get gdm working I had to
disable wayland and set xorg as the backend for it
I hope you in the meantime you managed to get yours started as well. Otherwise let me know, I might be able to help you.
