Use /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 instead of /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4 and link /etc/modules.autoload appropriately. > * USB mass-storage isn't working.

For the record, I have 6 machines (1 server and 5 desktop) running smoothly since test6. I have much more trouble with gnome 2.4 than with kernel 2.6. My only trouble is that I recently lost acceleration for a voodoo3 card (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33717) my 2 cents. I don't care if 2.6 is called development or vanilla. But, in a couple of months, the guys from kernel will start 2.7 and if development means something, a choice will have to be made then. I think keeping 2 vanilla flavors could be the best.
