Mine is=20 these packages: root@fireball / # qlist -I -C x11-drivers/ x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev x11-drivers/xf86-video-nv x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa root@fireball / # I try to remember to run that when I upgrade the kernel or xorg. I=20 usually forget and have to do the SysReq keystroke magic. After I slap=20 my forehead of course. There are quite a few of these commands that gets posted from time to=20 time. As a hint, I have a text file in my /root directory that contains=20 the commands and a description. I just cat and grep the file when I=20 need to. I wouldn't recommend a user directory tho. If for someone=20 reason only root is mounted, then you can get to /root but not /home if=20 it is a separate partition. You, and other Gentooers, may want to think=20 about doing something like this. Hope this helps in some small way. Dale :-) :-) --=20 I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or = how you interpreted my words! Miss the compile output? Hint: EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS=3D"--quiet-build=3Dn"
