Hi all,
The solution to the error is install a new linux-headers, Spock said try
remerging klibc or updating your kernel and the problem was about
linux-headers.
Updating linux-headers solved the problem for me. now I emerge splashutils
and it works.
Thanks to every people help me with this :d

Hello everyone,
I recently had to reset my clock to a more "correct" (that may be subjective)
setting.
In your case I would set my /etc/conf.d/clock file as:
CLOCK="UTC"
TIMEZONE="US/Pacific"
then I would assure that my /etc/localtime file is correct with the next
command:
$ cp /usr/share

That only tells us that /etc/localtime is a file, not which timezone data

That looks fine.
Do you dual-boot with Windows? In this case, set CLOCK="local". If not,
something else is amiss.
Gentoo only. :)
Where does /etc/localtime point? Is it consistent with the entry in
/etc/conf.d/clock?
I have:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 255
I can't even manually make the link cause there's no
more /dev/hdc or /dev/hdd under $ls /dev. Nor do these
devices appear in dmesg.
Maybe you didn't built your kernel with IDE support. This might be the case if
you use SATA harddisks. Try this command:
zgrep IDE= /proc/config.gz;zgrep -w BLK_DE

Hi Johannes and every friend of the list :D.
Johannes two things:
1.- I think (i guess) it's better install the 8.36.5 ati drivers, because
the 8.32.5 ati drivers is too bugs and is better have the actual driver, you
can download from the ati page and put on the portage distfiles and install
it.

All versions of the ATI driver are blocking xorg-server 1.3 at the
moment so you are not going to get around that one easily.
If you look at the --tree to find out what package is asking for the
upgrade of xorg-server and then mask that? this may help.

Hi,
Some days ago I upgraded my kernel from gentoo sources 2.6.20-r5 to
2.6.21.
After this, gnome-power-manager could not sense the power source. It
shows always AC connector in, even it is running from battery.
Acpi shows me the fact, is it running from battery, but gnome power
manager cannot.
I have a Gentoo VM that I've used for years (XP Host. Workstation 5.5.3). Works
great.
I copied the .vmdk and .vmx files to a new directory called "LAMP". I edited
the .vmx file changing the appropriate paths. Now when
