Okay, I'm still trying to compile KDE. I have gnome up and running, but I do want KDE on this box as well... (Both have advantages, and I'm not sure which I'll end up with.)
Remember how I commented that deleting the stdio.h file did the trick? Well, it got me past the problem I had been having. Then it errored out, so I did another "emerge gcc" like people had been suggesting, which got me further along. Now I'm stuck again, this time with the svgalib package. To refresh people, this is a first-time install on a machine that had everything redone from ground zero. Repartitioned and reformatted the hard drives. Built from stage 1... The error that I"m getting is: make: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/svgalib-1.9.17-r3/work/svgalib-1.9.17/threeDKit' make: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/svgalib-1.9.17-r3/work/svgalib-1.9.17/kernel/svgalib_helper' rm -f *.ko *.o *~ core .depend *.bak *.orig gcc -O2 -DLINUX -Dlinux -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -I/var/tmp/portage/svgalib-1.9.17-r3/work/svgalib-1.9.17/kernel/svgalib_helper/include -I. -I/usr/src/linux/include -I/usr/src/linux/include/asm/mach-default -DSVGALIB_HELPER_MAJOR=209 -M *.c > .depend gcc -O2 -DLINUX -Dlinux -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -I/var/tmp/portage/svgalib-1.9.17-r3/work/svgalib-1.9.17/kernel/svgalib_helper/include -I. -I/usr/src/linux/include -I/usr/src/linux/include/asm/mach-default -DSVGALIB_HELPER_MAJOR=209 -c -o main.o main.c In file included from main.c:24: kernel26compat.h:17: redefinition of `irqreturn_t' /usr/src/linux/include/linux/interrupt.h:16: `irqreturn_t' previously declared here make: *** [main.o] Error 1 make: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/svgalib-1.9.17-r3/work/svgalib-1.9.17/kernel/svgalib_helper' !!!

I'm at a loss as to where to go from here... Suggestions and pointers would be *greatly* appreciated! Thanks in advance, Krikket -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
