Issues with Gentoo

[Kenny Hitt]

Hi.  You will probably get more answers to your questions if you post
them to a Gentoo list.  I've just started playing with Gentoo, so I
can't answer any of them.  Look around on the gentoo.org web sight.
They have docs on doing lots of things in Gentoo.

Hope this helps.
