I lost utility power for 2 hours today while at work (on my home
machine). UPS probably help for 20 minutes, or so. Just out of
curiousity, is there a way to determine previous system uptime. I know I
was getting close to 11 months, which would be a record for me.

Nvidia's site seems to say that your card is supported up to the current
release; perhaps try the latest version and see if it works? I seem to
remember Nvidia's driver is rather kernel-version specific; if you're
using a recent kernel, you should probably use a recent driver.

You need to enable Wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11) first. You don't need
either of the 2100 or the 2200 modules; once you select Wireless LAN
(IEEE 802.11) a new slew of options should come up, including the Intel
Wireless Wifi option, and in there you should find your wireless card.

Did you read the bug it referenced? It sounds like they're removing JRE
1.4 only, not all JRE. Also, the message you pasted shows that only the
1.4.2.19 is masked by package.mask, which is where that message came
from. The rest of the versions are masked by dlj-1.1 license (and a few
by ~x86 keyword as well), not by package.mask.

spec, is using the Conexant codec. But you don't have support for that
in your kernel, or at least, not in the options you quoted
(CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_CONEXANT). Try adding that. If that doesn't
work, try adding support for all the codecs listed under the Device

Also, at a guess, the two "codecs" are going to be the Conexant codec

After doing "emerge --resume --skipfirst" a few more times I got a

>>> Auto-cleaning packages...
>>> No outdated packages were found on your system.
At that point I had the impression that the machine was not up-to-date
but nonetheless functional. However, the next morning I noticed that
the computer would not print to my local printer. Using the CUPS menu
did not rectify the problem. When I rebooted, the machine wouldn't
start X and the mouse wouldn't work. Rebooting again, I used the Grub
menu to select an old reliable configuration which allowed me to login
at a command line interface but did allow me to start X.
I would be grateful for suggestions about how to diagnose and fix the
above noted problems with cryptsetup, printer, mouse, and X.

Two naive questions occur to me:
1. To what should "eutils inherit" be added?
2. How should the addition be made?

I would be grateful for ideas about how to emerge gegl or, failing that,
