Folks,

I have installed Gentoo on a Sony Vaio laptop, and want to continue to add
functionality, specifically, KDE.  However, entering:
> emerge xfree
results in the following error (after much work represented by the "..."):

...
make[4]: Entering directory
`/var/tmp/portage/xfree-4.3.0-r2/work/xc/programs/xkbcomp/geometry'
rm -f geometry.dir
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../../exports/lib ../../../exports/bin/xkbcomp -lfhlpR -o
geometry.dir '*'
make[4]: *** [geometry.dir] Illegal instruction
make[4]: *** Deleting file `geometry.dir'
make[4]: Leaving directory
`/var/tmp/portage/xfree-4.3.0-r2/work/xc/programs/xkbcomp/geometry'
...

My questions are these:
1. How do I decipher what this error means?
2. Does the geometry directory have something to do with the screen size &
shape?
3. Is there something I can do about this?

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
