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 -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
