i can't be the first person to have this problem, but i NEED xfree on this 
machine.  i've upgraded every other box to xorg, but this one can't be.  i 
need xfree because it's the only windowing system that plays nice with the 
gatos ati drivers for my tv card. ...and i'm not about to boot to windows to 
watch tv.

so how do i just tell gentoo not to try to upgrade me?  is the following my 
only choice?  is it a good one?

  # emerge --inject x11-base/x11-xorg

why is it that xfree had to be removed but other stuff that most people never 
touch (like kdrive) is still in there?  am i the only one that's upset and 
thinks this is nuts?
