You are gonna laugh, out put of "/etc/init.d/xdm start" was - "starting
GDM", well probably i did a stupid thing somewhere letting gdm coming
over XDM but, i didnt do that on purpose - first, second i am using
"pure" X right now by executing xinit, .xinitrc file has only "xterm" i
have feeling it can help somehow...
Do you want me to change topic somehow?

I boot into normal mode(default one), get root access from console and

home is 100% mounted, and if i am not mistaking, wouldnt it say smth
like, "blah blah blah cant access configuration files from home
directory, so i am using defaults"?
however its not the case

right now it showed smth like: "gnomeui-warning": while connecting
manager: authentication rejected, reason : none of the authentication
protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
SESSION_MANAGER=local/drjoms:/tmp/.ICE-unix/6217

mistakes may warry, but "SESSEION_MANAGER=... BLAH BLAH BLAH" is more or
less same, with exception of number(perhaps some sort of process id
number? i cant find it using pstree -p|grep $PROCESS_NUMBER)

what i meant is that it will have to recompile allover again(it might
use some cahching  mechanizm as well?) if he has turned "emerge" process
off and in case if file wasnt downloaded fully it(emerge) will resume
file downloading

wouldnt say it is possible, unless u have hibernaton enabled, which

great!
I added the user to the wheel group and now I can su
to root.
Thank you

My /etc/seruretty says:
tts/0
Thats what is said to put there in the handbook.
An idea why I can't (directly) login as root?
