Doing so now produces something that is not obvious to me how to respond to: These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=media-libs/libcanberra-0.4[gtk]". !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - media-libs/libcanberra-0.26 (Change USE: +gtk) (dependency required by "x11-misc/notification-daemon-0.5.0" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "virtual/notification-daemon-0[gnome]" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "x11-libs/libnotify-0.7.2" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "media-video/vlc-1.1.9[libnotify]" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "media-libs/phonon-vlc-0.3.2" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "media-libs/phonon-4.5.0[vlc]" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "kde-base/kdelibs-4.6.2-r3" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "kde-misc/polkit-kde-kcmodules-0.98_pre20101127" [ebuild]) Is it telling me I have to change my USE from -gtk to +gtk, or can emerging one of those 8 packages listed satisfy the dep? IOW, it's unclear to me what "One of the following packages" actually refers to. >Do you have your video card specified in make.conf? >Should be somthing like: > VIDEO_CARDS="radeon" I hadn't seen anything about VIDEO_CARDS until your response. Most of my systems are mga, intel or radeon, but this particular one is NV. Finding the answer to which of three possibles are the correct response led me to http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml which I hadn't seen before. Now that I have I think I need to recompile due to misconfiguring of Graphics support. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
