12 Well, with the "-p" flag it should just pretend to. And show the
13 effective USE flags, which might be interesting for us to see in order
14 to match them with your statement that you have correctly configured
15 them.

17 But then, I don't think this won't lead us to the problem's core,
18 either, and would rather suggest that you extract the relevant lines
19 from /var/log/Xorg.0.log, i.e. those showing the _exact_ warning and
20 error messages regarding mouse/keyboard and stuff.

22 Or did you just mess up your kernel configuration, e.g. modules not
23 installed, old initramfs, and similar stuff? I take it we're still
24 talking about that machine which doesn't present framebuffer console
25 either?
