It is a waste of time to search the forums for possible bugs. There is a reason we tell people on IRC to file a bug instead of just telling a dev: for a centralised record/reminder. At the very least there should be a huge Java marquee on the forums with bright flashing words that says "Bug reports go to http://bugs.gentoo.org."; Put it in multiple languages if need be. -- Regards, Lisa Seelye GPG: 09CF5 2D6B8 2B72B 997A7 601BC B46B5 561E4 96FC5 http://www.thedoh.com/~lisa/site
