So after installation, the X packages can be removed by "emerge --ask --depclean --with-bdeps=n packages...". Or leave off "packages..." to see all installed packages that are not needed for world packages to run (which should include X). Of course you'll have to reinstall them if you want to rebuild icedtea... Cheers, Bryan
