Does the installer say that or do you get this message after you installed gentoo?

I'm working on two different stations and the gentoo station does not have any printer access. It says that I have screens but they are not configured. How do I configure them?

after emerging xorg (or gnome), did you do any x configuration at all by running for instance Xorg -configure?

Like zxiiro said, post the output of your X log file:

Code:

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log


If it's on a diff computer, just xfer it over the network via scp or something to the computer you're using to post on.
