Ok, that net.* error may mean you have some config in the wrong place (or a really old config file). Network configs for all interfaces should go in /etc/conf.d/net and then to ensure they get started you create a symlink from /etc/init.d/net.lo to /etc/init.d/net.eth2 (in your case). Unless your creating init files for whatever reason, you should never need to edit anything in /etc/init.d/. Im interested to see what "Setting up kdm ... " is, do you use KDE or GNOME? If thats xdm then ive no idea why its starting so early, and if it is xdm then thats your problem im guessing. BTW, if your thinking of moving to openrc, make sure you read the migration guide and follow it to the letter otherwise you risk being left with an unbootable system: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openrc-migration.xml - Nick
