  It never comes back from there, not even with a CTRL-C;

  Grepping ps for emerge (before the kill!) shows:

  Man ps says that the D means uninterruptible sleep (usually IO)
  Is my hardware dying ?
 
 It looks like hardware : how old is it ?  what is its record ?

It's only 3 or 4 years old. Never given any trouble with Gentoo, though I 
never managed to install any other distro - whichever one it was it would 
always just stop responding to anything.

Looks like time to revisit the BIOS settings. I prefer to stick with 
unadventurous defaults rather than playing around with core voltages, 
nanosecond timings etc. I've already checked all the hardware (and software) I 
can think of that would cause errors at only a single point, so it's firmware 
next.

[gentoo-user] Systemd and ModemManager

I do have a (cable) modem, but presumably that is not visible to the
system since the modem is behind a (linksys) router.

I can't simply --depclean modemmanager since gnome-control-center-3.10.3
requires it and the ebuild contains

# FIXME: modemmanager is not optional

thanks,

FWIW Allan I get those too (without any modem.)

I'm just ignoring them.

I got rid of the spam in the logs by going ahead and enabling modemmanager.

Re: [gentoo-user] problems with usb audio and midi

 Oops!  I gave a bum steer, my apologies!
 I meant to have typed:
 lspci -v | grep -i OHCI

he, should have noticed that myself... :-)

the output here is very similar to yours, OHCI is used only by the
firewire controller (which i don't use, anyway).

i got the midi controllers working on csound, where i can set the midi
device in the command line. but nothing on the gui applications (qtractor,
rosegarden, musescore...). i have to investigate more...

thanks for your help.
