Latest update. |
| 61 |
After adding/removing use flags, downgrading/upgrading packages (not to |
| 62 |
mention some firefox/thunderbird upgrades thrown in for flavor) based on |
| 63 |
information I stumbled across in the forums, gdm is now half working. I |
| 64 |
can login as root but not as the user. As to which piece of of the |
| 65 |
process actually fixed the problem I don't truly know. |
| 66 |
The process of fixing the currant problem brings to mind questions that |
| 67 |
are better not addressed in this thread, so I will be opening a new |
| 68 |
thread. |
| 69 |
Thanks for the help that you each have offered. |
