So, using the rpm version sounds easiest... or, would I still need gtk+1.2 even if I did use the rpm? And emerge says it wants to install about two dozen packages (perl, mysql(??), postgres(??), etc. etc.) in order to give me rpm... do I really need all of that to run rpm?

Ok, so I assume it would be bad/impossible to *also* install gtk+1.2?
No, I have them both installed. Portage installs gtk+1.2 and gtk+2.x to
different slots automatically.
Meaning I should unmerge 2.0 and emerge gtk again with some option to specify the version I want?
No, you can have both.
Would I then not be able to use a zillion programs that expect gtk 2.0?
No, unless you want to unmerge gtk+2.x.
Also, the matrox powerdesk prog is also available as an rpm... anyway to use rpms on gentoo?
emerge rmp
-> use rpm
