ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through

I googled for this and gather that it has something to do with the
placement of the mysqld.sock file.
The problem is the only post that I found that was specific to Gentoo
was in German. Since I don't want to screw things up any more
than they
already are, I'm turning here for help.
I do have the file /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
Thats a connection refused message.. Make sure the proper mysql
files are
there, and you may need to restart it to load your versions of the
grant
tables.
you might also shut down mysql, verify that all processes are gone,
and make sure that file is gone. that file should ONLY exist while
mysql is running.
