Can you please post /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/kvm-84/temp/build.log after running emerge kvm as portage suggests you ?? Because the above posted output doesn't help us to solve your problem... > I have the following in /etc/portage/package.use app-emulation/kvm kvm sdl > qemu > > and in package.keywords I have > app-emulation/kvm ~x86 > > Is this due to upgrading portage or something else and what is it that > needs to be done to make this work. I don't think the portage upgrade is the problem, but it remind me another thread about nvidia-drivers build, and i'm directing towards a kernel configuration problem... The log i ask you earlier will help us to see if it is the case ;) > Please let me know if you require further information and I will post it. > > TIA, > > brian -- Xavier Parizet YaGB : http://gentooist.com GPG : DC81 6FEE 6EBE FCE4 1C18 202F E575 4A5D 036D 1408
