I recently bought an fx5200 for $55, and it works perfectly. You have
to emerge the unstable version of nVidia drivers to get them working

Hi
I just attempted to burn an is for Gentoo for the pc here but after it
read in the iso the start button didn't appear. I looked in
setup>devices and none were listed. Also, when preparing the image for
'iso cue toc' it is using mkisofs not cdrecord. Is this correct for a

you should read portage documentation available on www.gentoo.org
