what are you using for your init ? sysvinit or something else ? i see you're mixing & matching stable and unstable as you have openrc on a stable system ... does reboot work fine with stable-only packages ? does reboot work when logging in via the console ?

It is a few years that this box is runing gentoo. I think that some world upgrade tell me to install openrc. > does reboot work fine with stable-only packages ? I guess that the best way to do that is to mask again openrc and update world. I will come later with the result. > > does reboot work when logging in via the console ? > Yes, it work fine as root from the console. It work also fine from fvwm-crystal menu. I use xdm-gdm to auto-launch fvwm-crystal at boot time.
