up and running thanks folks

I installed funtoo and gnome today but I am having problems getting gnome to start,xorg is working as I have 3 xterm on the screen after startx I tried removing them using emerge --unmerge x11-wm/twm and emerge --unmerge x11-term/xterm but then xorg complains any help I would be greatful for

yes I just found that out it was taking forever but it appears to bi installed but not booting will look into it tomorrow

Hello gnuisance thanks for the help xorg is ok it works.but Now I have a bigger problem,I tried installing gnome no luck its stuck on net lib webkit and just runs pages of text forever like 4 hours.I tried mate also it seems to be doing the same when it gets tosomething like webkit,I really wanted gnome but unless someone can help I cant work out whats wrong regards Ron

Hi I just finished installing funto again with no luck from x11-serverthis is all the drivers that are installed on here x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics does anyone know what is needed here as the is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf so I have no idea what is wrong

I tried that but will try again and let you know I was putting wrong login word in then remembered root that fixed it

I just installed funtoo today it went ok after 3 tries now that its booting I cant login it gives ma a login prompt for login but I only installed the password at final installation,what am I missing here
