Thanks. I have enabled openrc-force use flag found this in |
27 |
gnome-settings-daemon emerge log, which confirms what you have said: |
28 |
|
29 |
"gnome-settings-daemon needs Systemd to be *running* for working |
30 |
properly. Please follow the this guide to migrate: |
31 |
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Systemd |
32 |
You are enabling 'openrc-force' USE flag to skip systemd requirement, |
33 |
this can lead to unexpected problems and is not supported neither by |
34 |
upstream neither by Gnome Gentoo maintainers. If you suffer any problem, |
35 |
you will need to disable this USE flag system wide and retest before |
36 |
opening any bug report." |
37 |
|
38 |
So the it is clear to me now. |

|
40 |
I will try openrc-force as temporal solution until I'll find a new |
41 |
display manager and give heart breaking good by to GDM. |
