I got HAPPYMEAL to work.  My sparc64 is on the WEB!
Here is result of ls -lad /etc/make.profile
----------snip----------
kjones-sun2 ~ # ls -lad /etc/make.profile
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 58 May 17 12:45 /etc/make.profile -> 
../usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/sparc/sparc64/2006.1
-----------end snip---------
Here is result of emerge xorg-x11:  How do I install from the tar.bz 
file?  What is gentoo's equivalent of Red Hat's rpm?
