Hey Paul, I had the same problem but with a differnet package though. Maybe this has do with the way that your umerging the "xft" package. You didn't say how you were doing that. >From the command line I did: "emerge -C <packagename>" I didn't have any problems after that? I believe that the Portage link that was just sent to you describes the same command line usage. HTH's. JBanks __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
