before you start using icecc you need to copy the default config files from /usr/local/icewm (I think you may need to do a search in /usr for the folder called icewm to find them)
When you find them there are about 6 files called things like menu and keys and two or three folders called themes and programs. You need to copy all of these to /home/gentoox/.icewm
Your errors about GLX I get too when I use vnc but not when I am logged on locally I just ignore them they don't seem to cause any problems.
Your error about space on the device suggests you are running out of space on your device, check how much you have left with the df command. If you are running out you may want to clear your /usr/portage/distfiles directory or your /usr/tmp/portage directory.

If you keep an open mind, will your brain fall out?

It's OK that it can't find those files. They don't exist because you haven't configured any keys or used icecc before. After you save a key configuration (whyever you'd want one), you shouldn't see that message anymore.vSaAmTp wrote:i have a lot of errors too, with icecc.
