Hi,
As part of emerge @world mesa isn't building. It complains (I
think) about a missing GL/glxproto.h file.
Anyone know where this file is supposed to come from?
Thanks,

Sensible? What's that?
I think if my use has been beyond sensible, it's mainly in one or two areas:
I keep alot of software installed; and I keep up to date on a number of
programs (this is an area where I may need to redefine sensible from my
own perspective).

You can certainly overlook maintenance with Gentoo, and mainly do

What would be the lightest way to get X running right now? man

I didn't say anything about my hardware. The main hiccough, installing
gentoo, has been the ath5k module, which was at one time, I think, ath_pci.
Newer kernels may support this out of the box, in a gentoo install. Beside
that, dual monitors are working with the nvidia drivers.

Thank you for the useful advice. One more question will help: does the new
kernel support ath5k out of the box on an install?
Perhaps I can just edit the existing /etc/fstab, using device names. The
device numbering is inconsistent between GNU/Linux distros under the (what I
