You can paste emerge --info here.  You can snip parts that are not 
relevant if needed.  I usually remove mirrors and such.  Also post the 
version of drivers and such as well.  Using emerge -pv <package names> 
is the best way.  Then just give everybody time to give it a look and 
see if they see anything wrong or something you can try.
