Hi all, I don't have net connection at home mainly because my Motorola sm56 modem doesn't work on Linux. So I bought this 2 cd 1.4 version of Gentoo and did the installation. I was unsuccessful in the first few attempts and I gave up altogether. Next time I took a printout of the installation manual and finally got it working.
First thing I wanted to do was to install Xfree and then Gnome. I tried emerge -k xfree but ended up gentoo throwing lots of error. But finally I got xfree installed by using --nodeps. But I have to admit I don't like this option cause it would make my system more unstable. Anybody out there who are using gentoo at home without internet connection and yet running kde and gnome smoothly? Looking forward for some response. Karthikeyan B -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
