I have my Gentoo system booting and running KDE, than you very much. Now is
the time to understand how menus are added to the task bar.
I wonder how new programs, such as kdevelop, just emerged are added to the
menu. I know how to create a task bar button from a menu item, but I dont
know how t

Thank you for the help on "keepwork". Next question.
My computer has spend the day emerging kde.
The function 'startx' does work with 'twm'.
So, I can test kde before changing /etc/X11/initrc/xinitrc from 'twm &' to
'kde &", what is a good way to do that?

Pardon the slightly naive question.
I would like to study the c and cpp source on the packages I am emerging. I
*think* they are removed after compilation. I say I *think* as I was looking
in /var/tmp/portage and /usr/portage and didnt find them.
How do I go about keeping the source for later r

Gentlemen:
Here's what I have found over the last day or so in trying to get to X
functionality. This is with a computer with more then one distribution, and
the others all have X functionality. The computer is an Intel 810 motherboard
with the i810 integrated graphics device.

Gentlemen:
I have my stage 3 gentoo system booting after a little resolv.conf issue
earlier.
X-Windows is next.
I tried "emerge kde" and "emerge xorg-x11", but both of them stop fairly
quickly saying:
"Couldn't download libpng-1.2.8.tar.bz2. Aborting"
Would anyone be willing to help me t
Dear Mark, Hani & Andrew:
Thank each one of you very much.
I did miss the cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/resolv.conf step.
Once I did that and then the chroot, an "emerge ---sync" is now working on
many files.

Gentlemen:
I am working with the universal livecd. I untarred the stage3 tarball and had
just gotten to section 6 where I chroot. After that, name resolution on the
network ceased to work.
I can ping by address. There is a valid /etc/resolv.conf.
I rebooted from the cd, mounted the newly set
