[gentoo-user] Problems upgrading X

[Pablo Antonio <pabloa@gmail.com>]

Hello,
	I don't know if this was asked previously or someone had the
same problem I'm about to talk about. If that is the case, please
redirect me to some place where I can find the answer.

I tried to upgrade to modular X religiously following the "Migrating to
Modular X HOWTO". I removed the old X and installed the new one.
Everything was fine until I rebooted and tried to open my favourite
terminal (uxterm), but it wouldn't. It gave the following error:

"xterm: error while loading shared libraries: libXaw.so.8: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory"

That's when I recalled I had to do a revdep-rebuild before complaining
:), but it failed while doing a certain emerge (last lines):

In file included from main.c:21:
menu.h:28:23: error: menu-tree.h: No such file or directory
make[3]: *** [main.o] Error 1
make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[3]: Leaving directory
`/var/tmp/portage/gnome-panel-2.10.2/work/gnome-panel-2.10.2/gnome-panel'
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/var/tmp/portage/gnome-panel-2.10.2/work/gnome-panel-2.10.2/gnome-panel'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/var/tmp/portage/gnome-panel-2.10.2/work/gnome-panel-2.10.2'
make: *** [all] Error 2

!!! ERROR: gnome-base/gnome-panel-2.10.2 failed.
Call stack:
  ebuild.sh, line 1539:   Called dyn_compile
  ebuild.sh, line 939:   Called src_compile
  gnome-panel-2.10.2.ebuild, line 50:   Called die

Thus, it wasn't able to continue with the next emerges. The questions
are: First, how can I fix this? Second, does all this have something to
do with my not being able to run uxterm?

Last, but not least, scrolling down in firefox works abnormally slow for
some reason. Does this -again- have something to do with all the other
problems?

Thanks in advance.
