I asked you once before: "is Gentoo the right choice for you?" With all the posts you've made on this mailinglist since I asked this question, I can say without a doubt in my mind "no". But, like many before me, I'll try to send you in the right direction. Take a very good look at the following: > * IMPORTANT: 57 config files in /etc need updating. > * IMPORTANT: 1 config files in /usr/kde/3.4/share/config need updating. > * Type emerge --help config to learn how to update config files. You know what this represents? This represents your system "crying out" for maintenance! Now thoroughly read the following links http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=4 http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_etc-update http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_dispatch-conf And update your config files before you even start to think about anything else. -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
