Are there restricted drivers available for your video card? Is it a nvidia or ati based card?

In gentoo use the portage command in terminal. It works similar to apt-get if I remember right.
I recommend that you read this guide. It will help you to configure your system and install the most common applications

I've forgot to post the link to the Ubuntu's guide.

And about gentoo, you install programs with emerge tool, my mistake.

Thanks for that guide Farinha. I was wondering if they did a guide for 8.04.

Fade check the nvidia site if you have restricted driver available.
