 Hello to everybody!
 I installed the new amd64 gentoo enviroment but I cannot use the flash
 plugin: I installed by emerge the last version (the 7) but firefox and
 konqueror don't see it.
 I tried to the manuall installation but the installer doesn't support
 the x86_64 architecture...
 Is there a solution?

64 bit mozilla will require a 64 bit flash plugin, which doesn't
exist. There's a post in the forums, which tells you how to use a
32bit plugin. Other than that, there no other way really.

HTH.

 Now, back to the original question, in case anyone has any ideas...I'm
 trying to authenticate to a Microsoft proxy from the command-line of a
 Gentoo install. Is anyone familiar with that syntax?
 
 export http_proxy=http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080
 doesn't work. Namely,  when I try to connect to one of the mirrors,
 links2 just hangs at trying to connect
 
 Maybe there's another option though. I'm going to try booting Knoppix
 and trying the install from there next. Just wondering if anyone had
 experience with a Microsoft proxied connection
 

One reminder tho. Knoppix is a 32 bit distro, you cannot install a 64
bit system of a 32bit chroot environment. You need to look for knoppix
64 on google.

Good luck.

 Qian made a good point, but only responded to me. You can't do a amd64
 bit install froma a 32 bit environment, so if you're going to do a
 knoppix install you need knoppix64, which seems to be here:

Sorry, my bad, I hit the reply button and forgot to check the

 Still no file. I must be doing something wrong.
 
 My system is configured for graphical login. So when the login prompt comes
 up, I choose a terminal session login. That closes the graphical login and
 leaves me at a command prompt login. I login as root and
 execute: /usr/bin/X11/Xorg -configure. The screen goes blank for a second,
 and then comes back, no indication of an error. A few seconds later the
 graphical login is back. I log in, but no xorg.conf to edit. Am I going about
 this wrong?

My typo, should be Xorg -config that should generate /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Sry
