I want to play with plymouth and so I installed genkernel-next. It works perfectly fine but during `genkernel all` it prints out some errors/warnings. Even with those everythign is fine, but just curious if there are any plans on brinking plymouth to genkernel or adopting genkernel-next to better match funtoo expectations/layout. Probably we need funkernel :D

Yes, I am working with robbat2 on a genkernel rewrite and a modular system to integrate initramfs like dracut, etc. We are just getting started and the holidays are keeping me from diving in right now. The project is/will be hosted here: https://github.com/funtoo/xkernel . You can see that robbat2 has contributed a host of issues/todos that I will be whittling away on soon.

Hi All, I have just committed net-misc/turbovnc to the Funtoo tree. Turbo VNC is a very good VNC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Network_Computing) client and server. As a client, it will allow you to connect to remote systems and is very fast and feature-rich, with a ton of security options. As a server, it integrates with X and supports VirtualGL. VirtualGL is functionality that overcomes some inherent limitations of VNC, which traditionally does not support OpenGL or forces applications to use non-hardware rendering. With VirtualGL, you can remotely access a Funtoo system with hardware-accelerated OpenGL and benefit from its GPU (graphics will render on the remote system using hardware acceleration and then the rendered images will be transmitted to your client.) Learn more about VirtualGL here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualGL As a client, I've found turbovnc to be significantly faster than tigervnc, and the client has a lot of very useful configuration options -- see screenshots below. Please give the ebuild a try and let me know how it works for you.

Follow directions here to install/use meta-repo. Funtoo eliminated stable. Funtoo users running stable have to upgrade to current. I had one system running stable that I upgraded to current while still running ports-2012 before switching to meta-repo. Funtoo in many cases upgrades package versions at a slower rate than gentoo.
