<sigh> ... Well I guess there's always a first time ;) Nah, seriously,
first time I've seen it too.

Yup, followed the guide. Just FYI, I have an Asus R2 system running
Gentoo in which I haven't had this issue and now I just installed an
MSI Wind netbook in which I'm having this issue :(

Nope, not in the chroot environment, already rebooted. Everything
(seems) to work OK, except for revdep-rebuild and the qca compilation.

Right now I was going to install KDE and all the needed software to
get a useful desktop up and running so it's a minimal system.

Nope.

Yup.

I'll send this as soon as I get home tonight since I don't have the
netbook here with me.

Thanks for your time !!!
