[gentoo-user] libdbus error on vlc

[gentoo-user] First time kernel compile, experiencing some problems

Hello, after a couple of failed attempts some time ago, I actually ended up with a kernel that boots. However, I am experiencing some problems which I think are at least in part due to my perhaps incomplete kernel configuration. First of all, my console is still in 80x24 mode, although I pass vi
