 You want to read the output of "emerge --help config".  Right now.

 After that, you should probably spend some relaxing time with "man make.conf" 
and a cup of your favorite non-alcoholic beverage.

 Regarding sound, I know better than to try to help.  :(  My sound is touchy 
at best; just when I seem to have everything working I'll find that xine 
can't play sound but mplayer can, or they both can but KDE desktop sounds 
don't work any more while XMMS does.  (I've also resolved not to ask for help 
with this until I migrate from devfs to udev, which failed the first time I 
tried it.)
