can you retry starting at the beginning again - had to make some revisions

Make sure you follow the very first thing about the /etc/portage/package.keywords

[velk]

ok working fine now thanks

just need to find a way to start compiz-fusion-icon at kde starts, because i actually launch compiz with command line

[wolfden]

KDE should remember you session when you log out - can try adding it to the /home/username/.kde/Autostart if totally stuck

make sure to reinstall your fusion-icon

[velk]

I have also a problem with fusion-icon

access-dev1 nico # emerge fusion-icon

You have to do what is stated above - For extras, you have to add them to your /etc/portage/package.keywords

OK, everything worked fine up to and including emerge compiz-fusion-icon.
Then when I did this

localhost / # emerge compiz-fusion-plugins-atlantis

I got this

I've got another problem with fusion-icon. I have searched many forums but still have no idea how to solve that. Prob is, when i try to launch fusion-icon I get this error:

Code: Select all

* No module named interface_qt4

Compiz-fusion starts with "compiz-start" command and it works but theres no systray icon. Any ideas?. I run that script under KDE (sabayon 3.4a)
