I'm installing KDE 3.02 and download/compiling stops at trying to download Openmotif. I keep getting unable to connect errors for ftp.sgi.com/other/motifzone/2.2/src. I can go online and find mirrors but they stop at version 2.1.30.

export USE="-motif"


then try emerging again. that'll prevent emerge from trying to download the non existent openmotif package (although it won't build any openmotif packages or packages the depend on it). despite that. it should let you fully emerge KDE.

Thanks for your reply. After I put up my original post I did one last Google search and found a mirror in the UK that had a copy. I did a 'wget' into the distfiles directory, typed 'emerge kde' again and it took off from where it stopped. Feel kind of silly posting this then finding a copy not 5 minutes later, live and learn...
