I've installed ConTeXt using the MikTeX Package Manager: "for p in `mpm --list|grep context | tr -s [:space:] | cut -d ' ' -f 4`; do mpm --install=$p; done" followed by a "texhash" and an "updmap" for good measure, and I've upgraded to the latest tetex-3.0_p1-r3 in Gentoo's portage. I've also followed the guide: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Linux_Installation#Updating_Gentoo_Linux and modified /etc/texmf/fmtutil.d/00fmtutil.cnf by adding a '*' where indicated in the above referenced wiki. followed by texmf-update.
