When you're using an officially packaged application you should always look for a bug (and create one if there isn't one already) in your distribution's bug database. In your particular case there is already one for that particular issue, you'll find it at: http://bugs.gentoo.org/267571 I'm the maintainer of Kicad in Gentoo. I have a fix for that but I don't like it. And since I have been doing a lot of traveling lately I haven't had time to investigate further. I'm not sure but I believe that once the fix is in you will get the regular templates back with your schematics. So if you can live with it for a few more days you can just keep it like this and when the updated version comes it will be fixed automatically. If not, you can always add the following line to /etc/portage/package.mask : =sci-electronics/kicad-20090320.1666 All you need is then to emerge kicad or update your system. Denis.
