Stephen, The easiest way to record all of the output would be to issue the command: # emerge kdegraphics > kdegraphics.txt (Notice I used the package that is giving you problems. This avoids writing a HUGE file just in case emerge kde works this time.) This will write the output to a file in the current directory. There will be no output to the screen. When the command has compleeted, do: # cat kdegraphics.txt | more You can move through the file one page at a time by hitting the space bar. -- Regards, Ernie 100% Microsoft and Intel free -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
