You most likely need to reinstall. NEVER change the video settings inside the GUI (I know it sucks doesn't it?) From the FAQ: ? I changed the resolution in KDE and now it wont load up again -- have I broken it? Most probably. Try running "xbvset" as root. http://gentoox.shallax.com/modules...

You should be asking the makers or their community for support on this one.

We can't know where someone else or you have chosen to have the software installed.

The E and F installations do not destroy anything; the Native install formats F in a Linux file system.

ftp while running other software (something other than gentoox) and remove swap, rooftfs, vmlinux, linuxboot.cfg and initrd.gz
