Hello!
I just tried to install nvidia driver pack but on x11-libs/libxkbfile-1.0.5 it failed. Only 80 packages left from arround 350. The error message says only that "econf failed" dunno what to do since the error message is really short and have no details.
Please help me out!
Thanks in advance :)

emerge whatever it is you want to emerge, scroll through the output and find the topmost error in the output and copy and paste it into the forum. Preferably use the BBC code tags. after you have done that, type:

Code:
emerge --info


and post its output in the forum also using BBC code tags.

BBC code tags are above when typing your reply into the forum, it is the one that says code.

example of BBC code tag in java forum:

{code}INPUT CODE HERE{/code}

Gentoo uses brackets instead of curly braces.
