Very strange. The config should work. Tell me, What happens if you log on as root and then start X? Same behaviour? or does it work properly? The only other thing I can think of is some obscure keyswitch. I am troubled by one of those myself. Every time I reboot this thing, my numberpad won't

I could be wrong (and I most likely am), but I think that I encountered the same error when installing from a stage1 tarball. I don't recall if a reboot or env-update finally resolved the problem. I think that the problem was going from GCC 2.95 to 3.2. I'm also running an AMD processor ---

I suppose u need the extra storage, but why don't you convert the windoze box to gentoo and use it as print and fileserver? I use an old PII 300Mhz as NFS, samba (both PDC and plain fileserver) and USB print-server (for my Epson Stylus C82), it works like a charm! /Andreas Matt Neimeyer wrote:
