Don't ask...

I play shepard over several dozen laptops running gentoo and twm window 
manager.

I thought I'd have a look at the new modular x11 as a way of reclaiming hdd 
space. 

After following the "modular howto" I was left with a broken twm... X loaded, 
twm kinda loaded, but opened windows were pitch black... not a good 
situation.

The short story is, I had to emerge the following packages to get back to 
where I was with 6.8.x... rgb and twm ebuilds. 

After emerge, startx would load up and twm was back in good shape.

Just a heads up call for those in similar circumstance.

Jerry
