The configure script is exiting since the "drivers" variable has not been set: if test -z "$drivers" && test "$cf_use_graphics" = yes; then { echo "configure: error: No graphics drivers found." 1>&2; exit 1; } fi With the bug reporters USE flags, the driver variable will only get set to "FB" if the following header files are present (and directfb is not installed): /usr/include/linux/fb.h /usr/include/linux/kd.h /usr/include/linux/vt.h /usr/include/sys/mman.h /usr/include/sys/ioctl.h /usr/include/gpm.h So it looks like sys-libs/gpm needs to be an added dependency for fbcon: fbcon? ( >=media-libs/libpng-1.2.1 sys-libs/gpm )" With this addition links compiles fine when only the framebuffer gui is desired.
sorry for the delay on this. thanks Brandy, for getting me off my butt
