hi i am trying to emerge kdebase-startkde
after the cammand
emerge --pretend kdebase-startkde
I get the following message about blocked packages


[blocks B) ] dev-db/mysql-community ("dev-db/mysql-community" is blocking dev-db/mysql-community-5.0.76)
[block B ]dev-db/mysql ("dev-db/mysql" is blocking dev-db/mysql-community-5.0.75-r1


As i said this is a new install I have installed and configured xorg 7.4 all seems ok but when i start x11 the window is ok and the touchpad works but the keyboard does not work I am using the acer aspire one The xorg.conf is as follows I am not sure how to post from the aspire one yet so have to type

section "serverlayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevise "mouseo" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection


Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
option "Xkbmodel" "105"
Option "Xkblayout" "uk"
EndSection

Section "Module"
Load 'dri"
Load "dbe"
Load "extmod'
Load "xtrap"
Load "record"

What does
Code:

emerge --pretend --tree kdebase-startkde

tell you ? Let's see what is trying to pull in mysql-community. I use KDE 4.2.0 and have mysql installed, but not mysql-community. Is that something you emerge'd specifically ?

I suggest removing this section from your xorg.conf altogether. Xorg 7.4 does not need InputDevice sections anymore, hal takes care of that. Make sure xorg-server is emerge'd with the "hal" use flag, and that INPUT_DEVICES (in /etc/make.conf) contains "evdev". Remove "keyboard" and "mouse" from INPUT_DEVICES if they are in there, though that may not be strictly necessary. Just happens to be the way I did it.

My xorg.conf currently contains _only_ a Device section for setting certain options that I like. Everything else is auto-magically handled by hal and xorg.
