Hello, Thanks to some kind hearted people here on e-users I finally
managed to install e17 via portage on Sabayon (both x86 desktop and
amd_64 laptop... YippeeKiYayyy!!!

For the most part I'm _VERY_ happy with the results. It's already more
stable than the e7 installations I have on my OpenSuSE & Kubuntu
installations. 

I don't know why the 'default' theme differs from the one I've seen in
all my other e17 installations, (including the one I managed to
get on one x86 Sabayon installation via easy_17.sh) but It's brighter
(yellow/gold buttons and {window title bars?} are more cheerful than
the goth like gray/black tones of the other default theme. And I can
(if I look close) see which button would be pushed by pressing <enter>

I am however missing two module/gadgets I've become rather fond of:
the 'Calender' gadget that displays a daily calendar page and will
pop-up the current month on a mouse over, And tclock which displays a
textual time and date reference. 

I was hoping I could 'emerge' them to ensure they were fully compatible
versions to the rest of the e17 stuff I just emerged. The only available
tclock is x11-plugins/e_modules-tclock-9999. Which  in spite of having
the package.keywords from the enlightenment overlay symlinked to:
/etc/portage/package.keywords/enlightenment
is "(masked by: missing keyword)" ????
As is x11-plugins/e_modules-calendar-9999 ...<sigh>
Could the fact that the latest/installed version of enlightenment is
listed as 0.16.999.050 NOT 9999 have anything to do with it???

I also tried starting at Vapier's wiki:
http://overlays.gentoo.org/dev/vapier/wiki/enlightenment
pointed me at a get-e.org which has passed the torch to:
http://exchange.enlightenment.org/
Which has a bunch of themes and some applications & gadgets But doesn't 
appear to offer the calender & tclock gadgets I'm looking for...

Suggestions/clues anyone?
