Lord Nikon: Fixed outdated layman instructions

== Prerequisites ==
=== Setup layman ===
To install and use Portage overlays, you must first install and configure layman:
emerge layman

You must also add a line to your make.conf file. This line is different depending on the version of layman that you have.

#Layman 1.1:
source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf
#Layman 1.2:
source /usr/local/portage/layman/make.conf
#Layman 1.3 and later:
source /var/lib/layman/make.conf

For older setups use and more information see: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/userguide.xml#doc_chap2

Before you can use layman, you need to fetch its list of overlays:
layman -L
You may also want to read [http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/userguide.xml the Gentoo Overlays Users' Guide] for more information on layman, including how to update your overlays.

== Adding the Armagetron overlay ==
layman -a armagetron

== Installing Armagetron Advanced ==
=== USE flags ===
Several USE flags exist for Armagetron packages:
* debug: Enabled debug mode. This may disable certain features, and enable debugging artifacts.
* dedicated: Builds the dedicated server
* moviepack: Installs graphics making Armagetron look more like the movie TRON
* moviesounds: Installs sound files from the movie TRON. You can set LINGUAS="es -en" to get sounds from the Spanish movie instead.
* opengl: Builds the regular game client; default unless USE=dedicated

=== Packages ===
* armagetronad: Releases of Armagetron Advanced. If you set ~arch keyword, you will be able to install experimental releases.

== Updating the overlay ==
You can sync just your Armagetron overlay via layman:
layman -s armagetron
Or sync all your overlays at the same time:
layman -S
