Cannot find package when running magic

[blackhatrob]

I am trying to use magic to install kde and whatnot but magic fails when it tries to emerge:

libbonoboui-2.10.0

Magic appears to have downloaded the file, but keeps attempting to download it. I have tried emerge -C to remove it, but portage says it's not installed and doesn't do anything...

what can i do?

as a side note: when I try to run startx, I get an error stating:

Fatal server error:
Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices

what about that too?

Thanks in advance!

Hmm.... lots & lots (=days?) of compiling ahead even when things go OK...

Yep, portage can't remove the package until it is emerged on your filesystem. This means that the following package actions needs to be successfully done first:
- download
- unpack
- compile
- emerge

For some reason this is not happening for you.

Just a thought: Have you enough free disk space?
