Hi.
You need to pay more attention to the documentation. You need to do
Code: | # emerge -av gentoo-sources |
In case you didn't notice, it's gentoo-sources, not gentoo-source. When you have doubts about a package, you can search for it with emerge -s <package-name>. _________________ Jorge.

And next time you update gentoo-sources, you'll still have those USE flags set just for the kernel without having to remember to put them on the command line again. |
