I'm running gnome via startx, and the .xinitrc file looks like this:
export XDG_MENU_PREFIX=gnome-
exec ck-launch-session gnome-session
Could anybody manage to get this working?

But I couldn't get a solution from that forum.
Today was the day I installed network manager, but I don't know if that
has something to do.
I have no clue what may be failing.
Thanks in advance,

but I don't know about other people's experience.
Thanks a lot for your help,

No problem, I will see what other things I can try. I'm far from being
a gentoo expert, so that might be the process of discovering the error
harder.

way to achieve this?
Thanks in advance,
Damian.
Grant for sharing your experience (I'll try blueman version
1.21). I've also struggled with the bluetooth configuration, and I
agree: the gentoo guide is outdated (have you contacted the author?).
I tried to pair devices from the command line, but it was impossible for me too.
Greetings,
Damian.
d. However,
whenever I plug an external usb keyboard, it doesn't have the desired
layout, and I'm forced to run xmodmap again.
How can I do to modify automatically the keyboard layout of an
inserted usb keyboard? (running xmodmap from udev is not an option
because it has no effect at all).
Thanks in advance,
Damian.
this time
I'm using paludis as a package manager. No problems so far.
Best regards,
Damian.
