[gentoo-user] kdrive use flag quandary

2010-05-15 Thread William Kenworthy
I am trying to update a laptop after a break of a few months and have an ... anomaly! It suddenly wants the kdrive use flag enabled for xorg-server and sabayon - why? I think kdrive is a minimal xserver built on top of xorg so its not appropriate for a system I want full functionality on - is it?

Argh. Just have to vent a little. Bring up a new install on a system whose system disk died and was replaced with an SSD. OS installed no problems. Recovered my RAID5 and LVM JBOD volume (a GIANT THANK YOU to the mdadm and lvm2 folks!). Then first "weekly" update hits the libpng12 issue.
