ok this is like my 50th time installing gentoo over the last couple years and everytime i emerge say tuxkart or any of those games from portage my user account dont have access to them they are in the games group but they cant access them i can use super user mode login with root password and they work fine where am i goofing up here.
although kde games works fine it has to be a permission issue on those games. |

Looks correct for me, check your PATH for /usr/games/bin.
