Klaus, You should try deleting all of the XFree86*.tar.bz files from /usr/portage/distfiles. Then do "emerge sync" Then try "emerge xfree" again. This happens from time to time when the mirrors are syncing I think. It usually clears up pretty fast. I keep 2 lines for Gentoo mirrors in make.conf. One is always commented and when I have problems like you're having, I just switch mirrors by commenting out the current line and uncommenting the other. This hasn't failed me yet (YMMV) Regards, Ernie 100% Microsoft and Intel free -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
