Probably not much more than KDE, which I am hoping will be ready when I get
home. Then, tonight, it will be GNOME's turn. Followed by OpenOffice (which
I have not checked for  but would be surprised if it is not available.

I added kdm as the login manager in the rc.config script. I can't wait to
see if it is easy or hard to get that working after KDE is built.

Would you happen to know if it is straight forward to install win4lin on a
gentoo system? I took the vanilla kernel (cowardly, I know), but I wanted to
be sure that the NVidia drivers and the win4lin drivers worked!
