I'm sure that's the case. Gentoo does really a superb job of ferreting
out the right mixture of patches most of the time. I'm not really a KDE
user, but given the fact that Slack doesn't have the setup for xfce as a
standard offering, I chose to run KDE for the initial tinkering period.
The more serious problem is with X. I need to determine what to do
about the flickering screen before I try it again. When I see that, I
immediately think of potential monitor damage.
