I think it's all working now. I still cannot run X as I cannot figure out the right wat to set up xorg.conf for the TV Out port but as far as the mesa build failure after emerging things a few times and finally figuring out what I had to delete, etc., I *think* it's OK now. As far as the bug report went it just didn't click for me. Disappointing that after something like 10 months no one has fixed the ebuild. Cheers, Mark
