Thank you. I have always wondered what the optimal bs might be.

automatic load-balancing between two different connections.
So when bandwidth usage of the first connection is saturated, all new

Chromium is not released. It is not beta, it's not even really alpha yet.
It's common with software like this to disable everything by default and
force the user to enable things.
Reason: the user is probably running them to test them

Hello, people.
I've been trying for the past few days to get Xen working on Gentoo,
still no success.
I already have a dom0 kernel working, but can't get domU guests to
boot. I got installed:
sys-kernel/xen-sources-2.6.18-r12
app-emulation/xen-tools-3.4.2
app-emulation/xen-3.4.2
The dom0 kernel
Just as a follow up, I got it up and running.
It seems to be an issue with the old 2.6.18 kernel. I grabbed a recent
ebuild from http://code.google.com/p/gentoo-xen-kernel/downloads/list
(2.6.31), and it's now working like a charm.
Thanks anyway!
