D/l'ed the LiveDVD of Gentoo 2007.0, waited ages for it to start and then there was - nothing. No wifi because no adapter was found. Just my wired realtek GBit LAN adapter was found as eth1. I have an Intel Pro Wireless 3945abg mini-PCIe WLAN card and the ipw3945 module showed up in lsmod.

Another problem: After logging out from the GNOME session and choosing Enlightment I still was logged into the GNOME session. Do I need to manually put in the login information? What's the password for user "gentoo" then?

Thanks for your help in advance,
nowayman

Btw: Doesn't Gentoo provide an automount function out of the box? Neither my partitions nor my usb stick were mounted automatically. I'm totally new to Gentoo, pls be easy on me. :D
