I got a Duron 1200 but i am not sure which package i must download.

The Athlon? Or K6-III? BUt again TB = K7 but TB en Duron are the same CPU type right?

One doesn't download a specific package to support a given processor. What you DO want to do is the following:

1) Read the very good installation instructions. Pay particular attention to the editing of the CHOST, CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS in section 11.
2) Check the (long) CFLAGS Central thread. This may help you determine how to support your Duron.
3) Read the forums, FAQs and manuals.

Enjoy Gentoo. It's a great distro with a knowledgeable user base.
