New Kernel installation broke gentoox

I ran magic to install the new kernel version.The xbox turned off when it finished like it's suppose to. I rebooted and it turned off again. So far, everything's fine. When I booted the third time, it did exactly the same thing it did for the second step--it was on for a few seconds and turned off--...

HOW ABOUT AN OPTION FOR KDE TO START AUTOMATICALLY WHEN GENTOOX BOOTS. I CAN GET A 1024X768 RESULTION TO WORK IN KDE ONLY. XFC4 GIVES ME A BLANK SCREEN. I MEMORIZED THE KEYSTROKES AND CAN LOG IN THAT WAY BUT IT WOULD BE A LOT EASIER IF KDE STARTED UP AUTOMATICALLY.

no winex

Winex dosen't come with gentoox anymore. I've had the same problem but apaprently transgames wants you to buy it. Best I could do was emerge wine. Even when I emerged I still didn't work.

Is it possible to install and run Mandrake

I'd like to know if it's possible to have mandrake using gentoox. I tried "emerge mandrake" but got no results. Any suggestions?

Winex dosen;t come preinstalled in Gentoox Home V2.1. I tried to emerge but it still didn't work. You CAN still, however, emerge wine which is the same thing for most purposes. You log in as root at a console and type "emerge wine".

I only have an 8 Gig HD

I think you hit the nail in the head nobspangle. I only have an 8 Gig HD. Do I have to get a new HD in order for newfs to work. I was planing to get one anyway because I was suspecting that was the problem. Thanks for the advise!

High Definition--1920x1080--resolution possible

Is there any way, AT ALL, to display linux in high definition? Actually, what I'm really looking for is to be able to run a DVD in high definition display on my Xbox. I've been told it is possible to do this in windows, but I can't get windows installed. Any suggestions are welcome. I've been on thi...
