While trying to configure X, I accidentally deleted the file "/etc/xftconfig" what should I do about this?

xft is the X freetype library. Perhaps re-emerge x11-libs/xft ?

BTW you should use a more descriptive thread subject like 'removed xftconfig by accident' rather than 'I am an idiot'... :)

It won't let me re emerge it, it says it conflicts with xfree

what about unmerging xft and re-emerging xfree?? that should work to re-emerge xft cause it's a dependancy of xfree...
