OK. The problem is that I typed "emerge openoffice" in a xterm. Is it
possible to turn X off and continue compilation on console?

You can stop the emerge with Ctrl-C, switch to a console and do

If you can get to your non-X console (Control+Alt+F1) and from there

For future reference, there are several big packages that can take a
while to compile.
And screen is your second best friend ever (Google is the first). It's
so useful you might consider putting it in your shell profile so you
can't forget to use it
Why is using screen so recommended? I never used it, but I'd like to

Think of screen as a virtual terminal (or as many virtual terminals as
you need) that keeps running even when you log out.

You can run processes independently of the terminal/console that you started
them in. Try it out. You start a screen session like so:
$ screen -S my_screen_name_1

Hi,
if you don't use openoffice a lot, it is not worth to compile it. Just use the
binary package. It will take some seconds more to start, but once it runs,
there is hardly any difference.
