According to the hitachi manual (who made this drive for IBM) the DJNA-3X

is not lying in this case and you can trust hdparm in what it shows. I
suggest you leave al

ng 'ooffice -help'but I can't see
anything in there that will change this behaviour on the OOo built from
sources.

your
network. Zeroconf is the standard used for this purpose. Unless you expect
to plug and play I am not sure you need them on your machine. I think that
for a typical setup where you tell your PCs where the printer is there isn't
much benefit to justifying installing their dependencies and running a
daemon.

o, check that you have specified the correct Display Manager in
/etc/conf.d/xdm, e.g. DISPLAYMANAGER="kdm"
Then /etc/init.d/xdm restart to see what you get. If you have no success
after this then I'm afraid I've run out of ideas.

then it tries to connect to that X server.
In my machine (still on the stable baselayout) if I add XSESSION="kde-4" in
/etc/rc.conf and DISPLAYMANAGER="kdm" in /etc/conf.d/xdm it works.
Assuming that you have not forgotten to emerge xdm ;-) you may want to try
using the above settings and then running:
/etc/init.d/xdm --debug restart
from a console to see what errors you get.
