This is my first time to install gentoo and I'm having some troubles.

I have installed everything but I cant get xfree to start.

I have a Asus N78x delux with a raedon 9500 so thats nforce 2 chip set. I downloaded the AMD cds off the net and installed it as the MDR and used the genkernel command for my gernel.

Any help would be good.

Thx

If you want help you need to give more detail on what you what help with and what you have done. But stick to the subject. If you want some help with xfree then tell us what you have done to install it to this point. Dont need to know about how you installed the system just that it boots to the base system.
