Hmmm, no GUI.  See if you can use this:

elogv

Which comes from here:

root@smoker ~ # equery belongs elogv
  * Searching for elogv ...
app-portage/elogv-0.7.4 (/usr/bin/elogv)
root@smoker ~ #

I use that in a console when my GUI is not working for some reason.  
Usually because nvidia needs to be recompiled because of a updated kernel.

It's not the prettiest thing but it should work.
