Double-check your /etc/make.conf file and make sure your compiler flags are uncommented for your compiler. I once had those reset when I updated portage. Couldn't hurt to check.

Only the CHOST, CFLAGS, and CXXFLAGS should be uncommented. The "Athlon (AMD)" is just a description and should be commented.

Thanks you very much.
So, if I put this flag, what will be happen ? My compilation will be speed ?

But for the matter of VNC, i symply emerge "thighvnc" instead of VNC :p

I can't say that your compilation will be faster, but at least it will work. If you were telling portage to compile for a processor other than the one you plan to run on then the program won't run. i.e. I think it deafaults to a 686 processor, and I don't think that includes AMD K6 procs.

You could emerge tightvnc or vnc. tightvnc just does some more compression and is suggested if you are doing stuff over DSL/cable. If you have a T1 to your house, then by all means use regular VNC, and co-host my mail server while you're at it.

Can you paste the entire output of your emerge into a Code blocK?

This is what I get:

make: *** [all] Error 2

!!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully.

I apologize for not gettin it in a code block, but I can't get the damn "Code" button to do anything.

See here https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=12642&highlight=vncviewer+man+emerge. I raised a bug, but due to stupidity or ineptitude I can't test the fix. See https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7365 for the bug details
