actually i love E, its my WM of choice, but ive never been able to get
it to run on gentoo, the last time i tried i got the opening screen, and
then where it normally says "creating menu's please wait" i get a little
box with an "x" in it, and after that nothing, i havent tried it on this
box though and i didnt have all that stuff in my package.keywords, what
version would i actually be emerging with that and what version without?
i have seen on gentoo-portage.com that the E17 ebuild actually works now
but i havent tried it (or know how to)

i will give that a shot tonight, thanks
