No, just boot again like you did the first time by editing the kernel line on the fly at the boot screen. When the machine has booted, edit (as root!) /boot/grub/grub.conf or /boot/grub/menu.lst you may have to mount /boot first depending how you set up fstab. Both file names are commonly used in real life and one will be a symlink to the other -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
[gentoo-user] grub.conf
Hi guys, I've succesfully installed gentoo on my pc, but when i wrote grub.conf, i've made a mistake; in the second line, instead of < kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.25- gentoo-r7 root=/dev/sda3> i wrote < kernel /boot/linux-2.6.25-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/sda3>. I discovered this when i tried to boot and grub gave me error 15.So i edited this line while in grub and then pressed 'b' to boot. Everything was ok. but the changes I made to the grub.conf are not permanent. How can I fix it? Should I use livecd to reach grub.conf and edit it? if yes, what's the path? thanks in advance. Giacomo

If you're using the evdev driver for your keyboard, make sure your desktop applet that is responsible for keyboard layouts (both Gnome and KDE have one) is configured to use an "evdev managed keyboard" rather than something like "pc104" and the like.

There is a port of fpm to GTK+2: "FPM2 is GTK2 port from Figaro's Password Manager originally developed by John Conneely, with some new features." [1] It seems actively maintained, as of July 2008. I've also found an ebuild [2] for the latter. The port is a pure GTK+2 application, i.e. there are no Gnome dependencies. Revelation is in Portage, but Gnome dependent and no longer maintained since 2007. If anyone knows other candidates, please post here.

Which qt version do you use? My guess is 4.4.1.
Try building it with with qt3support USE flag enabled.

Do you have qt 4 installed? It says it can't find a part of qt4 in the
