Too badly to resync?

I would also check out the Asus G51J-A1 which is a similar set-up to

It seems like a well priced machine which comes with two hard drives! That may

There is often a couple of ebuilds in the tree that need manual editing
for one reason or another so the digest needs regenerating. For one

Hi group,
Going through a rough patch after a world update. The SD card on my
netbook doesn't get mounted, ext2 filesytem not found etc. I've had
this problem before which I traced to the lack of support for SD cards
in the kernel. This time it's something else. Nothing wrong with the

I do not run the KDE desktop here but do like and have used some of
their apps, Gwenview and K3B being some examples.
Previously I could install the minimum KDE 3 support needed and that was it.
It would seem that now in order to install such an app as K3B I have to
include the entire KDE 4
you don't have to install full KDE. just emerge the packages you need, for
example:
emerge -av k3b gwenview
it'll bring only the dependencies the packages need, which is not the entire
KDE.

There's your problem right there. Your device-mapper can't work
with baselayout-1. So, your options:
Upgrade to baselayout-2 and openrc.
Done, following

No joy.
After '*Autoloaded 24 module(s)' in the boot console there's the bit

Altering some USE flags was a big help. I had been altering them, but
finally it worked.
I went from over 300 packages down to 32.
